	Wren - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Only one wren, Troglodytes troglodytes, known as the Winter Wren in North America, also occurs in Europe, where it is commonly known simply as the Wren.
		The wren also features in the legend of Saint Stephen, the first Christian martyr, who supposedly was betrayed by the noisy bird as he attempted to hide from his enemies.
		The tradition, and the significance of the wren as a symbol and sacrifice of the old year, is discussed in Sir James Frazer's The Golden Bough.

	Sedge Wren Detailed Information - Montana Animal Field Guide
		Sedge Wrens are adapted to foraging in shrubby grasslands, owing to their small size, relatively long bills, and longer legs in comparison to other wren species using forested habitats (Niemi 1985).
		Sedge Wren eggs are ovate or pointed-ovate, white and unmarked, smooth and moderately glossy (Harrison 1978), and measure approximately 16 x 12 mm (Bent 1948).
		Sedge Wrens arrive at nesting areas as early as mid-April (Bent 1948) in some regions or as late as July in others (Lingle and Bedell 1989), and have been observed nesting as late as the end of September (Schwilling 1982).

	House Wren House
		Wrens are very protective, so position the nest box in less frequented areas or you might get a scolding from a disgruntled parent.
		Wrens are notorious for filling up any conceivable nest cavity with twigs, regardless of whether they use the nest.
		Since male house wrens build several nests for the female to choose from, hang several nest boxes at eye level on partly sunlit tree limbs.

		The sedge wren shows little site fidelity from year to year, possibly because the habitat that the sedge wren prefers is more likely to flood or dry out from one season to the next.
		For nesting, sedge wrens require wet grassy and marshy habitat where sedges and grasses are interspersed with small shrubs as they avoid the cattail marshes preferred by the marsh wren.
		Sedge wrens are considered endangered in many regions and are indeed rare throughout their range.

	Effects of Management Practices on Grassland Birds: Sedge Wren
		Sedge Wrens breed from eastern Saskatchewan through southern Manitoba and southern Ontario to southern Maine and New Brunswick, south from northeastern Montana and central North Dakota, through eastern South Dakota, to eastern Kansas and eastern Oklahoma, and east to New Jersey, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire (National Geographic Society 1987).
		Sedge Wrens typically were found in sedge meadows in Wisconsin and Minnesota, but during dry years they used hayfields, grasslands, and oldfields (Faanes 1981).
		In Saskatchewan, Sedge Wrens preferred DNC (tame or native not specified) to idle native grasslands or wheat fields (Hartley 1994).

	Sedge Wren Habitat Model (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Sedge wrens use densely vegetated sedge meadows, wet hayfields, upland margins of ponds and marshes, and coastal brackish marshes (Gibbs and Melvin 1992).
		The available information suggests that sedge meadows, which offer saturated soils, with or without shallow standing water, are optimal nesting habitat, and that other types may be used when optimal habitat is unavailable or of limited availability.
		The sedge wren model identified wet grassland and sedge covers that were within its known range (see below), and which had a minimum area of approximately 2 acres (8 30-m cells).

		The sedge wren, formerly known as the short-billed marsh wren, can best be distinguished from other wrens by its relatively small size.
		Sedge wrens arrive in Pennsylvania in April and May, and migrate south to brackish coastal marshes from August to October.
		For nesting, sedge wrens require damp meadows and marshes where sedges and grasses are interspersed with small shrubs.

		Perhaps because of the highly transitory nature of its nesting habitats, the Sedge Wren moves around a great deal from year to year, not staying in one place for long.
		The Sedge Wren is one of the most nomadic territorial birds in North America.

		Species commonly found in northern sedge meadows, and at Powell Marsh, include the red-winged flbird, sedge wren, bobolink, common snipe, song sparrow and swamp sparrow.
		Sharp-tails occupy areas with denser grass and sedge vegetation, but do not tolerate many woody plants in their territories.
		Large, open sedge meadows, including Powell Marsh, provide the best habitat for all three, and the only habitat for Nelson's sharp-tailed sparrow and the yellow rail.

	Birds - Short-billed Marsh Wren
		Where red-winged flbirds like to congregate in oozy pastures or near boggy woods, the little short-billed wren may more often be heard than seen, for he is more shy, if possible, than his long-billed cousin, and will dive down into the sedges at your approach, very much as a duck disappears under water.
		The home is made of sedge grasses, softly lined with the softer meadow grass or plant-down, and placed in a tussock of tall grass, or even upon the ground.
		But while fond of moist places, both for a home and feeding ground, it will be noticed that these wrens have no special fondness for running water, so dear to their long-billed relatives.
