Feeding Habits
Red-browed Treecreeper's primary diet consists of invertebrates. It forages by probing tree bark with its slender, decurved bill, a specialized adaptation for extracting hidden prey. Red-browed Treecreeper exhibits unique feeding behaviors, clinging to trunks and branches while searching for food.
Habitat
The red-browed Treecreeper is typically found in open forests and woodlands, prevalent within the Great Dividing Range area. Its preferred environments are wet sclerophyll forests dominated by smooth-barked eucalypt species and a shrubby understorey. The species is also common in dry sclerophyll forests that feature a grassier understorey. Red-browed Treecreeper may inhabit subtropical or temperate rainforests when emergent eucalypts are present.
