Tree Creeper. A lifer! (Certhia americana)

A rare sight for me. This is only the 2nd tree creeper ( a brown tree creeper) I've ever seen, and the first I managed to get a shot of. At first I took it for just another nuthatch, until I noticed it was moving differently. They're so quick, and frustrating! This is the best shot I managed before it flew off, too bad I was so far away.

Super job of catching this mover! You got a far better image that my first one.

Congratulations Bill. I took thirty or so great image (I thought) of a tree creeper once only to find that the settings on my camera had changed as I carried it on my shoulder. They were all blurred. I learnt but I still haven't got a decent image like yours yet.
