Observation details

It is here, still, scolding at the upper dam as I arrived. Recorded some calls; no audio play needed. Brief partial views. Edit: It appeared a second quieter wren crossed over the spillway opening following the first. Attempted video —man are they quick! The second wren had a whispered call - maybe a “thinner” higher timbre. Edit #2: Recordings: Second wren likely a curious winter wren which made the perceptually "mousier" chip note (in an audio clip). There was NO interaction between these two and neither seen nor heard together. One WIWR has been not far off (lower end) for weeks so I have corrected the record to one marsh wren on all observations after 1/12.
