Brown creeper

I am enchanted by these tiny little treecreepers. They are cryptically coloured, and blend well with the tree trunks they like to creep up. They have a very high-pitched call which can often be overlooked.

Wow, what a great shot of this little creeper! I think this may be the most difficult of all our local birds to photograph.

Nice find and very nice shot Christine. These birds sure do blend in well.

Great shot especially since they tend to move fast and usually onto the back side of the tree away from the camera!

Lovely shot of this funny bird. Not easy to catch as they never seem to stay still for too long. V

It' s a lovely little bird, despite it's drab plumage and once again you've captured
it perfectly. V
