By the end of his second month the male Bewick's Wren has found his own unique Voice. This will be the song he sings for his entire life! The Bewick’s Wren is a very common bird in the West, and here in the North Bay. They mostly eat insects and spiders! The Bewick's Wren used to be common back East as well, but are now almost completely gone from there because of competition with the House Wren. About a month after hatching, the male Bewick's Wren starts to learn to sing. He develops slight variations from the adult males that he hears around him. By the end of his second month the male Bewick's Wren has found his own unique Voice. This will be the song he sings for his entire life! A Bewick's Wren at Bothe-Napa Valley State Park!
