π¦ The Eurasian treecreeper or common treecreeper (Certhia familiaris)
π Certhia (Greek): kerthios - a small bird crawling through the trees, mentioned by Aristotle
π familiaris (lat.): common, easily recognizable
This bird is not often seen by me, in places where I go it is not numerous. The bird is sedentary, and in autumn it can be seen in the company of other birds as part of a mixed bird flock.
The bird quickly, like a mouse, moves along the tree trunk from the bottom up diagonally. And it becomes a problem when you want to take a photo of her.
As can be understood from her beak, she feeds on insects and their eggs, which she skillfully takes out with her tweezer beak. But in winter, this bird has a hard time, and she is forced to add small plant seeds to her diet, which she finds with difficulty.
