Certainly looks like a carolina wren, and like one of their nests. Wrens are well known for nesting in and around human structures. Enjoy your chirpy little brown bird. As for the one bird thing, carolina wrens usually do mate for life and are monogamous, so if it's just the one wren then its mate is most likely dead.

birds posted:Once the babies leave the nest and it's fulfilled its duty do birds usually return to the same spot if it's a good one? Tends to depend on the species. Some searching didn't turn up anything one way or another about wrens, but it probably depends on if this is indeed a single wren parent (its mate most likely died) and whether it will move in with another wren's territory or if a new mate will take over its. Wrens aren't flocking birds and can be fairly territorial, so an established wren will usually stay in a given area if it's doing well there. It's mainly larger birds, like hawks, eagles, and owls that tend to reuse nests year after year if it's a good area.
