The Wren Troglodytes troglodytes is one of Britain’s smallest and most widespread birds. With its low buzzing flight, its loud energetic song can be heard at any time throughout the year from high moors, hedgerows and thickets everywhere. During cold winter weather wrens puff out their feathers to conserve heat and may roost communally in cavities such as tree holes or walls. Its Latin name means ‘cave dweller’.
