Birds

Eurasian Wren is a very small insectivorous bird and the only member of the wren family found in the Old World, specifically Eurasia and the Maghreb region of Africa; in Anglophone Europe it is commonly known simply as the wren. It has a very short tail often held erect, a short neck and a relatively long, thin bill, is russet brown above and paler buff-brown below with fine dark barring throughout, and has a cream buff supercilium; the sexes look alike.
