Quite like our own Eurasian wren:
Folk tradition here has the wren as the King of the birds.

That looks a lot like the
house wrens
we usually have. Apparently Bewick's wren is a
rare migrant and summer resident in southern to central Illinois
. That's probably why I haven't seen one before.

:D "Give us a penny to bury the wren."
