Bewick's Wren

The Bewick's Wren (Thryomanes bewickii) is a wren native to North America.

The San Clemente subspecies (leucophrys) of Bewick's Wren, found solely on California's San Clemente Island, went extinct soon after goats and sheep were introduced to the island. The subspecies brevicauda from Guadalupe Island suffered the same fate after 1903 for the same reason.
