Cairngorms National Park in winter
Tree creeper or Treecreeper (Certhia familiaris), RSPB Loch Garten, Speyside, taken by David Palmar. Treecreepers have a long, pointed tail and a fine, downwards-curved bill. They climb up trees in a spiral around the trunk, feeding on insects and spiders which they find in crevices in the bark. They have long, curved toes that help them cling to the bark, and really stiff tail feathers that they can push against the tree for extra support.
