A two White-browed treecreepers sharing a captured insect for breakfast on the short green lawn of Lara Wetlands bush camp in Queensland Australia.
The White-browed Treecreeper (Climacteris affinis) is the smallest of the Australo-papuan Treecreepers and sole family member adapted to arid environments. The species foraging strategy involves climbing the trunks of trees in search of invertebrate prey on and under bark. Although some populations within the species range have declined, the species IUCN conservation status is of Least Concern.
