I've had established Carolina Wrens since 2011. They are very hardy, and as Ali said they do love suet. I have seen them building nests that they don't use. I think they might have the same inclination as House Wrens to build multiple nests before choosing one. I have also seen them doing this in midsummer, so there are multiple broods in a season. Enjoy your wrens, they are always fun to observe!
