Brown Creeper II

brown creeper 2Friends, again I am showing a Brown Creeper from the northern Minnesota bog.This is a very tiny bird and get most of his food by probing the bark of mature trees.  He starts at the bottom of the tree and spirals around the trunk until he reaches the top, then he flies back to the bottom of the tree to start again.  This bird is resting briefly before he starts another upward foray.  I like his slightly curved beak  and camo coloring that blends with the tree bark.  Enjoy, til Tomorrow MJ
