    Treecreeper is known as the doctor in the forest. Interesting, there is always a "doctor" in Sichuan.

    When giving the body check, it first uses its beak to tap the tree gently from root to tip. If there is a hollow sound, it will performtheoperation immediately. The Sichuan woodpecker "treats" the tree with sweeping searches. It lies on the tree and uses its long and curving beak to clean out pests on the tree. The Sichuan treecreeper is more like a “dermatologist” in the forest.

    You can’t have your cake and eat it. The Sichuan treecreeper, however superb its tree-climbing skills, is not a great flyer. Its wings are short and rounded and can only fly short distances.
