Brown Creeper - Ladner, BC This little bird is typically on the move and mostly in the shade, so is typically not a great subject for bird photographers. This day turned out to be the just the opposite as we walked through the Reifel Bird Sanctuary on a Sunny January day. The warmth of the sun was just too much to resist and parked himself on one of the pines along the east dyke. Brown creepers are tough to see on the trunks of the trees that they feed on, but one way is to get a good look at them is to catch them flying down to the base of the trunk of the next feeder tree as they almost always feed going up the trunk.
