#Tree Creeper

[ostdrossel]

I put a cam by this tree because I wanted to try and get footage of a Tree Creeper. They are tiny birds that meander up the trees instead of down as the Nuthatches do, and they are so well camouflaged that they are hard to spot and photograph. Well, this week I got one, you'll see it at the end of the clip. Trees are habitats day and night, and it feels like we can't have enough of them! (Music is once again copyright-free, called "Simple, light and bright piano songs" and this was the Ceyomur CY75 trailcam.)

Brown Creeper (Certhia americana), sadly too far and too cloudy for my first sighting...

What are your thoughts on the Tree creeper from primeval? how does it compare to my reimagined version of the it and what would be your take on the Tree Creeper?

The tree creeper is kinda cool but there’s no way in hell that thing’s a raptor. I like yours much better because it’s more raptor like though, although raptors don’t have a fourth finger.

I personally wouldn’t have gone the dinosaur route if I hate to design it just because the way dinosaurs do arboreality is very different from primates (stiff spine, “hugging” trees, clinging with the feet). If I had to though I probably would have gone with a megaraptor since they’re the only dinosaurs we know of that can pronate their hands.

as a guy who has held a tree creeper (multiple times in fact) (doing bird research don't worry) I can bear witness to the fact that they are insanely grabbable

I love birdwatchers they’re like “I just saw my ALL TIME FAVORITE BIRD SPECIES! I’ve always dreamed of seeing one in the wild! I am ECSTATIC!” and it’s the most boring looking little brown bird you’ve ever seen.

Plant of the Day

Monday 2 June 2025

The slender herbaceous climber Tropaeolum speciosum (flame nasturtium, flame creeper, flame Indian cress, Scottish flame flower) is flowering in the Polycrub. The long-spurred, bright scarlet flowers are supported on very fine stems climbing through × Fatshedera lizei 'Annemieke' (tree ivy). The roots and long fleshy rhizomes of this Tropaeolum species need a humus rich lime-free soil, in cool shade.

Yesterday (Wren Day/Lá an Dreoilín ) I walked the bounds with the wren I use symbolically on my altar and an amulet bag I made that holds my found Carolina wren feathers. I started at the creek—a personal sacred space—where I made an offering of wassail. We then visited many of the trees that are sacred to me.

My partner purchased the wren from CamilleDesigns on Etsy.com

*no wrens were harmed

Tree Creeper from Primeval

This is a Reimagined take on the Tree Creeper trying to make it more unique, and i gave it a fun scientific name Simiaraptor Sylvaticus !

The Simiaraptor is an undiscovered maniraptorian dinosaur and its a new lineage of parave a unique group of paravian dinosaur that look similar to dromaeosaurs but evolved an aboreal life style similar to monkeys and even went as far as to convergently evolve an ape like apparence having longer arms for better reach in climbing and more flexible hands to climb well and also interacting with stuff, they even use their claws to kill prey aswell as their teeth, a very odd thing about this unique group of parave is that they posseses an opposable thumb with claws giving them four fingers unlike all paraves that have 3 fingers suggesting through out evolution there ancestors had polydactyly which they were born with a 4th digit that is their clawed thumb and it seems to have a benefit for them in better climbing and interactions so they now naturally continue to evolve their thumbs to become more useful, they also weirdly have a long and flexible tail unlike their parave relatives who have stiff tails, they uses their tails to wrap around tree branches and even uses them to strangle their prey to death, they are very social creatures and tend to be more friendly towards their kind whilst typically hunting alone they do form in a group to take down larger prey that dwells in the forest they live in, males and females bond for life and even raise their youngs until adulthood, Males have more patterns around their scales and feathers then the females and they are also larger than the females, these Paravian dinosaurs are quite a unique group and there could potentionally be more relatives in other enviroment!

Thats about it for the little info on my reimagined Tree Creeper!

As for my thoughts on the creature himself in primeval i ironically love him alot, yeah its just an anthropomorphic scaly raptor but i cant help but love how it looks in the show and they looked badass and it became my n°1 favorite fictional creature of primeval with second being the Future Predator and Future Burrowing insect in third, back when i first saw it as a child it reminded me of the Dinosauroids by Dale A Russell and also the Lizard from Marvel lol, i also enjoyed the episode where the Tree Creeper got introduced it was very fun to watch and to this i still enjoy watching it Primeval will forever be a great part of my childhood!

you can leave your thoughts on my Reimagined Tree Creeper down here i would really appreciate it ^w^!

I terraform minecraft for fun and everytime I see a build with the worst landscaping imaginable I have to stop myself from trying to reach through the screen and fix it for them
