All of our bycatch this time was furious at us.
Song Sparrow:
Let go of me
Brown Creeper:
Stop looking at me
I hate you
Mountain Chickadee:
I’m going to bite you
I warned you
I am using the power of flight to bite even harder
Keep it up, humans. I can do this all day.
Tough Little Birds 
I didn’t realize how tiny brown creepers are. What a stylish bird–but what ratty tail feathers they have!
Haha, Brown Creeper tail feathers are supposed to look like that. The feathers are stiff, and the bird uses the tail as a prop as it climbs trees. Woodpeckers do the same.
