Cactus Wren Habitat Ask any bird-watcher where to find a Cactus Wren and chances are that a veteran will be able to describe the kind of place the bird inhabits. An experienced birder can stop along a highway in the Southwest at a thicket of Cholla Cactus and say, "There ought to be a Cactus Wren here." |

A Cactus Wren builds its nest deep among the protective spines of a Cholla Cactus. These birds only nest where there are suitably dense thickets of cactus. |
