Tiny body, enormous voice, sings year-round even in January. Loudest cubic inch in the South.

- Fakta menarik
- The Carolina Wren's loud, ringing "teakettle-teakettle-teakettle" song is disproportionately powerful for its tiny body, audible up to a quarter mile away, and it is the state bird of South Carolina.
