Description
Tiny and usually well-camouflaged with its brown plumage, the eurasian Wren is a fairly populous bird that may sometimes be seen hopping quickly and quietly along a forest floor, rustling sticks and flipping over leaves as it searches for insects. The species, though, is more often heard than seen; though quite small, the eurasian Wren has a loud, melodious song.
Size
9 - 10 cm
Life Expectancy
2-5 years
Feeding Habits
Eurasian Wren is primarily insectivorous, consuming a variety of insects, terrestrial non-insect arthropods, and aquatic crustaceans. It forages with nimble acrobatics, gleaning prey from intricate hideouts. Distinctively, eurasian Wren adapts to local food availability, showing a versatile diet and feeding technique.
Habitat
Eurasian Wren is typically found in temperate terrestrial habitats including dense forests with rich understorey, scrub forests, mountains, marshes, and various urban and suburban settings such as parks and gardens. Their geographical distribution is broad, extending to regions with varied vegetation, from deciduous and mixed woodlands to well-vegetated areas in human settlements and remote offshore islands. While adapting to a range of environments, in certain areas, like North Africa, they are more commonly found in forested stream valleys at mid elevations. Eurasian Wren can thrive from sea level up to the high altitudes of the Himalayas, with records of habitation up to 4575 meters.

Behavior
This small, stump-tailed wren is almost as familiar in Europe as the robin. It is mouse-like, easily lost sight of when it is hunting for food, but is found everywhere from the tops of the highest moors to the sea coast. It is a bird of the uplands even in winter, vanishing into the heather when snow lies thick above, a troglodyte indeed. 
Distribution Area
Recorded from Europe except the very north of Norway and Sweden. Carolinas in North America.
