Upside-down Living
Much to my delight a Eurasian Treecreeper has become a fairly regular visitor to the Mause feeders. For so many years I'd been unable to get even a half-decent picture of one. Now I seem to be doing a little better with this P900.

They must have a strong grip to defy gravity in this way LOL

Life in the upside down lane! Terrific behavioral picture of this cutie on the limb's undersurface. Lovely colors, setting, background, and subject! Top-notch D!

Excellent, must be so satisfying! Well done Delia!
Yes, indeed Peter. I didn't have a scooby when digiscoping, even though I saw them fairly often. Which was why I started down the road of bridge cameras. Then, would you believe, I just didn't see any!! So frustrating. When I got the Nikon, I seemed to see the similar species in Australia and got pictures of them.

Now I get them fairly regularly at the feeding station. I just love them. They really are my favourite woodland bird.
