  • My computer is in the shop…

    …but I get it back tomorrow! Northwest winds tonight mean birds on the move and I’ve heard quite a few flight calls in my limited listening on the front porch. I hope to have woodcreeper.com up and running once I get my computer back- so stay tuned! Until then- don’t believe the hype. Summer is […]
