I know it is not a very good photo but maybe someone could tell me what this is. Location central Alabama. Length about 3". Loud call especiall when she wants to feed the young in the basket.

Thanks for any help.

Hi Jeff,

That's a Carolina Wren. Fairly common in the deep south (I've seen them in Texas), very noisy birds when they're singing!

LOL Michael, what you call noise, I call a song for my heart. I could listen to the CW all day long and then some.

Yep, a very nice song, but still LOUD!!!

Carolina Wren was actually the very first bird I got on my US list, at dawn after arriving on a night flight

What's she doing, looking for plastic insects?
