For those wishing to know the differences between Winter and Pacific
Wrens, I recommend googling images on-line. The photos show considerable
differences not shown in the field guides. Most notable is the fact that
Winter Wren is, at least in most case, much grayer on the head. One would
never mistake one of those gray headed birds for a Pacific Wren.

I agree Darrel
I have seen a few Winter Wrens as vagrants on SE Arizona in recent years.
They were easier to identify than They have paler grayer faces and throats.
It would be a good exercise for Oregon birders to google or bing Winter Wren
and Pacific wren images. There will likely be misidentifications on those
sites, and you will be able to spot them.
