How many...

Trees does a treecreeper need, if a treecreeper really needs trees?

Carl spotted one running from the base of a tree along the river today. The trees there are sparse, with about 20 feet of bank to grow in, although there is a good mile of bank without too much disturbance. Not what you'd call a woodland.

from RSPB Pocket Birds: mixed,deciduous or coniferous woods. also occurs in hedges
parks and gardens with mature trees.

so it appears as many or few as needed. Had one in our shrubbery (wilderness) for four weeks last year, not seen one since
