The microscopic origin of the creep rheological response of colloidal glasses is investigated, based on the particle-level dynamics measured by confocal microscopy during application of a step stress. Sub-diffusive single-particle dynamics are the microscopic signature of creep. At a more local scale enhanced dynamic activity is observed at random locations, with the number of active regions following the time-dependence of the macroscopic strain. Instead, diffusive dynamics characterise the flowing system, with a transient super-diffusive regime during the onset of flow. Transient super-diffusion coincides with the appearance of enhanced dynamics in a specific region of the system, which subsequently rapidly expands and finally spans the whole system when the steady state of flow is reached.
