Eureka! Brown Creeper photos

A couple of weeks ago, I posted about a special Brown Creeper rescued by a school janitor when I was teaching, way back in 1978. I just came across the photos of it, taken with my Olympus OM-1 with a 50mm lens. One of my students or another teacher took this one of me holding it in my classroom:

When it had recovered, my students and I released it in a park near the school. It wasn't in much of a hurry to leave us, so just using my little camera with the 50 mm lens, I got three snapshots.

I'll add these to my original blog post, too.
