This is another new experiance for me. I do not want to harm them but would love to keep an eye out for the progress and try to keep them as safe as possible. The tiny watering can sits on the table between the two rockers on my porch and the male seems to have built him a nest in my hanging petunia planter as a place to keep watch. any helpful tips or advice is welcome.

well go over to this thread for camera info. You'll see all kinds of differing info. My recommendation as others, is the longest optical zoom you can afford.

Well nanny mine does his job very well then. We are having wonderful weather and the wrens are doing well. I annoy them when i water my plants on the porch but i guess that is to be expected.So i watch and wait.
