    The winter wren, also known as Troglodytes hiemalis, is a small species of bird in the family Troglodytidae (wren family). It is native to North America and is known for its distinctive, cheerful song. Its common name derives from its preference for colder weather and its wren-like characteristics. These birds are usually brown, with darker feathers on the back and lighter ones on the stomach, and typically measure about 9 to 10 cm in length. They generally inhabit thickets, brush piles and forests, especially in coniferous and mixed woodland areas. Their diet mainly consists of insects and spiders.

  1. Winter Wren

    The Winter Wren is a very small North American bird and a member of the mainly New World wren family Troglodytidae. It was once lumped with Troglodytes pacificus of western North America and Troglodytes troglodytes of Eurasia under the name Winter Wren. It breeds in coniferous forests from British Columbia to the Atlantic Ocean. It migrates through and winters across southeastern Canada, the eastern half the United States and north-eastern Mexico. Small numbers may be casual in the western United States and Canada. The scientific name is taken from the Greek word "troglodytes", meaning "cave-dweller", and refers to its habit of disappearing into cavities or crevices whilst hunting arthropods or to roost.
