Jeepers Creepers!

If you look very carefully, on the left side of the tree, you will spy a wee brown creeper. I was outside in the backyard today, taking pictures of the brook, and this spry fellow nearly zoomed into my head! Quickly he darted away, landing on the tree away from me. After a few moments, he flew across the brook to the dead tree there. I've never seen a creeper in the yard before! Then the male cardinal came into the yard, too! A good birding day in the backyard!
