Hi all,

Could you please help me with the identification of this treecreeper?

European or Short-toed?

The picture was taken in Lugueros, in the Province of León in the Cantabrian Mountains in the North of Spain.

Thanks in advance

Agree: short toe (claw), white fringe to alula, even step to cinnamon band in wing

... and darker/blacker primaries, inner ones with distinct pale spots on tips, very apparent in your image.
