Hi Christine, Nice observation and documentation. Yes, this is noteworthy. The 2014 edition of the Florida Bird Species, Annotated List (Roberson and Woolfenden, updated by Greenlaw, Pranty, and Bowman) states: "one report...suggests breeding , but, as elsewhere in the southeast US..., verifiable evidence of breeding in Florida is not known." I'm not sure how best to submit this for the record. I suggest contacting Andy Kratter of the FOS Records Committee and Florida Museum of Natural History. I've cc'd him, so you have his email.

Hello all, I captured the following images of what I'm reasonably sure are a fledgling Sedge wren and one of its parents. The photos were taken on 4/22/25 in Jefferson County, FL, near Monticello. I have since learned that this species typically breeds much farther north. Perhaps I've misidentified? If they are Sedge wrens, do these birds occasionally nest in our area? Thank you,Christine
