User's notes

This White-throated Treecreeper appeared in a tree when I stopped to let the bush get back to normal. This bird was living up to its name by creeping up a tree. Interestingly, in the first photograph it appears to have what looks like a spiders web in its mouth. It did not climb straight up the tree but almost corkscrewed up. It would seem to do a few branches before moving to a separate tree.
