Wallcreeper

There is some disagreement among ornithologists as to where the Wallcreeper belongs in the taxonomic order. Initially, Linnaeus put it in the family Certhiidae, with the treecreepers.The Wallcreeper is placed in a monotypic family Tichodromadidae by, amongst others, Clements 2007, while other authorities such as Dickinson 2003 put it in the monotypic Tichodromadinae, a subfamily of the nuthatch family Sittidae. In either case, it is very closely related to the nuthatches.

The Wallcreeper is essentially a rock-climbing, long-billed, insectivorous nuthatch of remote Eurasian mountains (nice photos of dark-throated male, below, and female, left, by Brad Schram). It was once considered related to tree-creepers but anatomical and behavioral evidence argued it was more like a nuthatch. DNA-DNA hybridization data show a close relationship with nuthatches; Sibley & Monroe (1990) consider it a subfamily of the Sittidae (Nuthatches). More

This past weekend I was shown that the Wallcreeper is big enough to completely wrap around my hammmock with me in it...just like a PeaPod. So now your campwear can also be insulation for your entire hammock. I'm a very cold sleeper so I wrapped the Wallcreeper around the hammock and then wrapped a Speer PeaPod around it! It's not often that I get hot camping out in January but this time I did. I was so impressed with the Wallcreeper that I ordered another one. More

As Wallcreeper is an unusual and special bird, traditionally considered of family level and as it breaks no taxonomic rules to retain it as this level, I like the idea of retaining it in its own family. Whatever is its true taxonomic level, it is a highly prized bird. More

When I got my first wallcreeper it had an odor to it and I exchanged it, the second has the same odor but only slightly but I can deal with it. It must be from the down wash or something while it's being manufactured. I've been backyard testing my gear in different configurations all this week and I'm pretty happy with the wallcreeper, though the temps only got down into the mid 40's for the lowest and mostly high 50s.
