The reason for the location is that we can get an estimation of how large the population of certain creatures are in the different areas, if one is spotting a endangered species the location of the area is hidden by this site as far as I know for the species protection, when it comes to other less endangered species it's not much we can do, but if poachers want to spend time on this site just to find a location of an animal that most likely will be long gone by the time they get there is fine by me, maybe they learn something that will change their minds with time...
And yes I noticed the white stripe over the Wrens eyes it looks like my spotting have the same stripe. When the weather is good, I'm going to search the area again for the bird to get better pictures.
Didn't get close enough to get good enough pictures I'm afraid, but I don't think it had the tail you mention here, I checked out the picture zoomed in and it seems like it's tail is pointing downwards, in addition the Eurasian Wren does not have the characteristic dark stripe behind its eyes. So I'm not sure at all what species this is.

Hope you find it again, it's a funny bird to watch!
Alright! How cool, I'll keep my eyes peeled!

if it about 10 cm then it must be Eurasian Wren, that's the second smallest bird in Norway..
It was maybe between 10 and 15 cm at most, most likely smaller
How big was the bird, if you remember? The only bird I find that looks similar to this one is the Eurasian Wren

Hi Gaia.. I think this could be a Eurasian Wren - Troglodytes troglodytes but it's not easy to see.. Did it have a short tail pointing upwards?
