Wrens in the greenhouse
This spring (starting in early March) I had a pair of wrens who moved into the greenhouse to lay eggs.. they'd come in during the day when the heat vents were open, and basically get locked in at night when they closed. Occassionally I'd hear them hollering (one of my greenhouses is attached to the house) and would have to get up and "let them out" if it was a cool day. They raised 3 adorable baby wrens in the greenhouse, where they were safe, warm and dry!
Now they are bunking down in the other greenhouse, in a hanging nodosa.. I don't believe there will be anymore babies.. I think they are doing it for warmth. They get very close and holler alot if I'm in there working.. they are quite cute!
The problem I have is that it's getting time to button up the greenhouses for the winter, and I don't want to lock them in, or out.. they are sneaky getting in, and will do so if the door is even slightly open. Has anyone builts an entrance into a greenhouse for feathered friends, that remains open all winter for them? I know that sound nutty, but they are such characters, that I'd like to indulge them!
