'Big Foot'

Warrenton, Virginia

Been seeing a Brown Creeper in our trees, but haven't had good enough weather to try and improve on an image.
While looking back at older images, was impressed at just how large the feet are on this little bird - proportionally larger than his head.
Best viewed in 'original' size.

Very interesting looking bird, blends in well with the bark of the eucalyptus tree..

You got him nicely.
Better then i have.
They do come here but are hard to spot.
