Description
Hand carved by World Champion Carver, Merrill S. Timmins, this life-sized Wren is a work of art. Mr. Timmins has been carving for 28 years and teaching the art of carving for 18 years. Each of his birds are hand crafted from a block of Basswood or Tupelo and painted true-to-life.
Wrens have loud and often complex songs, sometimes given in duet by a pair. The song of members of the genera Cyphorhinus and Microcerculus have been considered especially pleasant to the human ear, leading to common names such as Song Wren, Musician Wren, Flutist Wren and Southern Nightingale-Wren.
