A new bird for the garden list

                                          juv Treecreeper

                                         Got attached to the neighbour

   Cameron kindly posed long enough with claws in his neck for some pics.

Only the 4th of July and already unusual birds are turning up in unusual places.
This young Treecreeper flew into next doors conservatory stunning itself but after a rest in a tupperware box and a few mealworms it seemed lively enough even running up Cameron, the finders, arm and settling on his neck for me to get these snaps at lunch time.
The bird was released and hung around a while before disappearing so hopefully it,s continued its journey.
Question is, where did it come from with no Treecreeper sites around this area.

Another strange sighting today was a winter Brambling in a garden at Brighouse, AC.
BS.
