Raising House Wrens, by Diane Porter House wrens do yard work for me. I stand on my back porch and watch a tiny brownish bird streak from the apple tree to the garden, drop to the ground at one end of the vegetable bed, and disappear under the dense greenery. Broccoli leaves quiver as the bird travels through the hidden depths of the patch. The house wren emerges at the other end of the bed, with a large cabbage moth caterpillar bulging in its bill. I know where that caterpillar's going.
