Hi All,
Dee Thompson of Nashville is a nice lady and an avid birder. I thought you would enjoy this story she posted on TN Birds about a Carolina Wren.

When I was a little girl in Florida, we had one that built its nest in the
toolbox on the passenger side floorboard of Daddy's tractor. That bird rode 
around, sitting on her eggs, while Daddy harrowed the fields.  Later  on,
during the second phase of harrowing the fields, the baby birds were in the nest and "Mama" would fly onto the moving tractor, feed her babies then go hunting 
again.  She repeated this over and over while Daddy harrowed his  ten acre
watermelon field.
