Klingon! (Certhia familiaris)

It's enough to make you pull your hair out!

Trying to track these little gems as they work their way up a tree through thick undergrowth is bad for my blood pressure. The air turned blue - good job there was no-one else around! Just when you get it in focus it hops somewhere else or conveniently hides around the other side of the trunk or there's a branch/leaf/twig between you and the bird - surely Treecreepers are one of the most frustrating of all birds to photograph but worth the big grin when you get it right!
