I call them jimmy-jimmy birds, because that is what they say. I’ve never seen one in the wild, only heard them; they are too small and too good at hiding. But I found out that they are Carolina wrens by Googling “jimmy-jimmy bird”: and, say what you like about libraries, I am not at all sure that that is something that a brick-and-mortar library could have done for me.
