BIRDS OF PEASEMARSH 



ways of its own. In ascending a tree its tiny 

 body is very close to the trunk and partly sup- 

 ported by its tail, hence its name, Tree Creeper. 

 It hunts only when ascending. When as high 

 as it prefers to go it will flit to the ground and 

 start up again, either on the opposite side of 

 the same tree, or another tree. 



These hard-working birds that stay with us 

 through the frost and snow and storm of the 

 long winter should have all the protection that 

 human beings can give them.
