Question:
Is it commion to find wrens in a pool house? My family has a pool and in the pump house we have a cupple of nests.

I have seen wren nests in just about any sort of sheltered cavity, including a carpenter's apron pocket hanging in a tool shed, a hole in a rail fence post right next to a busy sidewalk, and many others.
