Sharp-tailed streamcreeper

As the species name suggests, this bird lives near rocky streams and small rivers. This pictures was my second attempt a photographing this species. The particular stream where this individual was photographed is located along a small stream in a dark forest, which required low shutter speeds to keep the ISO relatively low and patiently waiting on top of a rock. The bird eventually appeared and posed for a bit, which made my day. The bird posed on several mossy rocks and logs before making it's final exit. The blurred background, which turned out better than expected is the stream in the background.
