Wings on Wednesday - Hunting Wren

Yesterday morning I spotted a Wren (Troglodytes troglodytes) searching round the front of the Greenhouse. My apologies for the grainy shots but lighting was difficult at the time:

I spy with my little eye - something beginning with S:
Wren

As I thought - a nice juicy spider:

Let go of that web:

Got you:
Wren

Burp - pardon, manners:

    A grand little bird. The spider kept it still.

    It was a rare moment Adrian, to keep it in view for so long.

    Super shots of spider attack and snack! A wren's beak is a great tool for web browsing ;)
