Another photo of a bird from Point Reyes National Seashore in California. This wrentit was flitting about our campsite at Coast Camp on a cold December morning daring us to take his portrait. So, we did.
Wrentits hang out in the coastal chaparral at Point Reyes singing from the top of shrubs and dropping out of sight into the tangled branches. These are tiny birds about 6 to 6-1/2 inches long with a long tail and short stubby bill with mostly brown feathers around the body and grayish around the head. They're described as being elusive, but this little guy was just the opposite.
Remember, it's not just a picture, it's a story.
