Before a few years ago, I'd never seen or even heard of a tree creeper. Now, they're one of my favourite birds.

Watching them move up a tree is fascinating and I was lucky enough to see one stay still enough to get relatively close for this photo.

Does anyone else have a soft spot for these wonderful birds?

They are certainly not ones to sit still and pose, but if you set up on the next tree they'll be on, you can be ready for them as they start at the bottom. At least the species I have here tend to (Brown Creeper). [email protected] @johnmwildlife

@michaelrussell Thank you for the tip! I will give that a go next time I'm out which will hopefully be tomorrow - weather dependent.
