"This bird is often a favorite warbler for beginning birders, because it is easy to see and easy to recognize. It was once known as the 'Black-and-white Creeper,' a name that describes its behavior quite well. Like a nuthatch or creeper (and unlike other warblers), it climbs about on the trunks and major limbs of trees, seeking insects in the bark crevices. It often feeds low, and nests even lower, usually on the ground."

Guess who’s coming with me to the Wild Bird Fund this morning! Poor thing. He’s probably exhausted and dehydrated but didn’t seem injured, just dazed. Fucking midtown windows, man.
