The king of the fence, yes, that’s what it’s called in German (Zaunkönig), and indeed, it’s very loud for its size. Cheeky, hectic, and small, it flits through the undergrowth, letting its high-pitched chirping ring out.
Did you know that a wren is called “Zaunkönig” in German? That means king of the fence. According how loud these very tiny birds sing, it is an appropriate name for its species. Mighty words by the tiny mighty king.
