Another Carolina Wren Nest - A Repurposed Nest
Carolina Wrens are opportunists. My friend Phil had wrens nest in his running shoe sitting on a window ledge more than once. When these wrens get to building a nest, they don't waste any time. This one was complete in less than a day.
The helmet was originally just put on top of the planter right by the back door when we were playing in the backyard. The wren saw an opportunity! I moved the pot and helmet to the top of my locker storage cabinet so it wouldn't get disturbed and this is how it proceeded....
