You Little Creep

That's not what I call Kim, but that's the name of a very small and highly camouflaged tree hugging bird. The Brown Creeper. This little bird is hard to see at best and most of the time, you just catch a glimpse of it moving around the side of the tree, then off it goes. It flies to the base of a tree, then climbing the tree in a spiral movement. We only see them in the morning, just after sunrise from about a hour or so. They are kind of hard to find, so don't feel bad if you have never seen one. But keep looking.
It is starting to feel like spring is in the air. It has not snowed in ten days and the sun is melting the ice on the street and birds are singing in morning.
