“An opera singer of the south is this robust wren. His loud and melodious “figaro, figaro, figaro”
is one of the joyous sounds of the eastern United States. Once in a while, I was lucky enough to
hear one and maybe even see one in my home base of southern Ontario. But the Old South is
truly the heartland for this handsome bird. That is why I put one in the setting of hanging Spanish
moss. I picture the setting as a grande allee of live oaks leading to a gracious ante bellum
mansion…a fitting setting for our little opera singer.”
Robert Bateman
