Monday Nature Mystery

We are pleased to announce the winner of our Monday Nature Mystery, Elise Milstein! (please email us your snail mail address and preference for a hat or tote bag to: [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]) ).

Congratulations to Elise for correctly identifying the call note of the Brown Creeper (Certhia americana). According to our good friends at All About Birds ([link removed]) , “Brown Creepers are a tiny bird with an affinity for big trees!” Unlike White-breasted Nuthatches who work their way down tree trunks, Brown Creepers work their way up foraging for insects along the way. During intense cold snaps or inclement weather they may eat suet or sunflower seeds.
