Cloudy and cold at mid-morning. The high lisp of a brown creeper at the woods’ edge. In the distance, a gray squirrel is airing a complaint about a hawk.

Strange! Here we would think a creeper a plant (a vine) – but there it must be an animal, an insect or a bird.
We have one of those types of creepers too, the Virginia creeper! But this is a little bird who spends most of his or her time creeping up or down the trunk of a tree, inspecting it for insects – a bark-gleaner.
