Another obscure bird from the Erikson Woods (forest preserve on the
Skokie Lagoons). I found it's name out while investigating about
the merganser on a birdwatching website: as I was scrolling through
all the photos of birds all of a sudden there was the little speckled
brown thing with the label "Brown Creeper". It was very small and
looked like more of a rodent then a bird.
While circumventing the Lagoon on an ecological adventure
yesterday there was a point where it was silent, and then I heard a
bird, so I decided to follow the noise and find the bird. It was
climbing around a tree, so I propped up my camera and took some
photos. It was pretty preoccupied, so it was difficult to
get a shot showing its face.
