While out by the river looking for dippers, behind my my dog Tai started going crazy about something in the tree.
But what had she seen? A squirrel, a cat? A pigeon or crow? No, what she had spotted was....
A treecreeper!

Hi Kat
Love your Treecreeper. What a fabulous set of pictures of your dog, and the Treecreeper together.
Treecreepers are fast little movers, and can climb up a tree at the rate of knots
Well done to you.
Regards
Kathy and Dave
Hi Kat,

Brilliant pictures, brilliant dog.
Cheers, Linda.

Well spotted that dog. My dog Bramble is generally crashing through the undergrowth scattering everything in a 50 yard radius ahead of me.

Well spotted Tai, lol! How on earth did she spot such a small bird?!
Lovely photos too :o)
I've never seen a Treecreeper, can I borrow Tai to look for them? lol
Lovely pictures Kat. Obviously Tai has been on too many walks with you, when she is told to wait while you have a look at a bird. I bet if she could speak, she can name the birds as well. You just couldn't understand she was barking 'tree creeper'.
Lovely photos Kat - and what a great look-out dog you have. I can't see you missing much on your walks in future!
The necessity of bird-watching is a really good reason for avoiding all forms of housework.
The dust will still be there tomorrow - the birds may not be!
