My New Column: All About the Mysterious Brown Creeper

7W0A6840 copy (2)My latest column for The Record is all about the bird that few know about and even fewer  see very often — the Brown Creeper.

Here's the opening:

One of my favorite bird species sometimes dines in the woods beyond my Allendale back yard, but I seldom see it — even when it's around.

It's called a brown creeper, and at first glance you'd think this little guy must have overslept the morning that Mother Nature was handing out charisma.

It's not a bit flashy or noisy or colorful. In fact, at first glance you may not even see it at all.

A big thank you to Alice Leurck for the photo. 

Apologies for the poem at the end of the column — I bet you did not see that coming.
