• The wallcreeper is an insectivore, feeding on terrestrial invertebrates—primarily insects and spiders—gleaned from rock faces.
• The wallcreeper is a small bird, with crimson, grey, and black plumage, related to the nuthatches.
• The wallcreeper is found on steep cliffs especially for nesting.
• It is a noted location to see the wallcreeper, an uncommon cliff-dwelling bird.
• The wallcreeper "(Tichodroma muraria)" is the only extant species, but the extinct "Tichodroma capeki" is known from the Late Miocene of Polgardi, Hungary.

• While they appear similar to the treecreepers ("Certhia"), they do not use their tails to support them while climbing and some molecular evidence shows them to be closer to the nuthatches ("Sitta") while another study suggests a closer relation to the wallcreeper "Tichodroma muraria".
• Alpenzoo is the European Endangered Species Programme coordinator of the northern bald ibis, and the only zoo in the world which exhibits the wallcreeper.
