Kruse: Organism's Home

Both of these organisms' homes were spotted in my yard at the  exact location of 42.256596,-71.637109.


This is a picture of a bird house in my back yard where a family of Wrens have chosen to make their home. As to exactly which type of Wren this is, I suspect it to be a House Wren, or Troglodytes aedon; however, it is difficult to take a picture of them before they fly away, so I am not 100% sure.


This is a picture of an ant hill located at the end of my driveway. I suspect that this ant hill is home to either Pavement Ants, with the scientific name of Tetramorium caespitum, or Black Carpenter Ants, with the scientific name of Camponotus pennsylvanicus.
