Himalayan Bar-tailed Tree Creeper approaches nest in a dried up and dead deodar tree at the Landour cemetery, near Victor Banerjee's house 'The Parsonage'. While the male enters the crack in the tree's bark where the nest is located, the female exists at the same time...

The bar-tailed treecreeper (Certhia himalayana), or the Himalayan treecreeper is a species of bird in the Certhiidae family. It is found primarily in the northern parts of the Indian subcontinent, particularly in the Himalayas, as well as in adjoining regions. It is found in Afghanistan, India, Iran, Kazakhstan, Burma, Nepal, Tibet, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. Its natural habitats are boreal forests and temperate forests.

The bar-tailed treecreeper has a flecked or striped feather pattern, usually in black, brown, white and red hues. This coloration allows the treecreeper to blend in with its forest surroundings quite well.
