Nicely captured Kim. The dark background makes the Wren stand out well. I have birds going in and out of mine, although they never actually spend any time in it. It is also too far from the house to get a decent sized image.

They may be using it to roost in during the cold weather Kim. The repost is better. eric

A surprise visitor to a nesting box in my garden - he didn't stay long - but long enough to take this picture.

Like this and the effect you have created, I think I would just darken the bird and basket a little.
