Observation details

Thought it was a Common treecreeper at first. After a closer look at the photos and precise listening to the recording now I tend to believe it is actually a Short-toed treecreeper (not entirely sure). Found it by its relatively loud sounds, which do resemble those of the Short-toed. The eyebrow starts from the eye, not the bill. Distinct tips on the ends of the wings can be clearly seen. The "steps" on the wings are relatively even and the bill seems to be a bit longer than the one of the Common (not sure about these though). Also, the underparts are not purely white but a bit gray-brownish (not sure about this too). The record of the voice added.
