Spotted
The Black Grasswren is a striking and elusive inhabitant of the Kimberley region of Western Australia, known for its dark plumage and secretive nature. It prefers rugged sandstone country with dense spinifex.
Where to spot
Dense spinifex on sandstone escarpments and gorges in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
How to spot
Navigate rugged terrain carefully and slowly. Scan the spinifex for quick movements or listen for their distinctive, high-pitched calls, which are often the first sign of their presence.
When to spot
Early mornings or late afternoons when temperatures are cooler and the birds are more active.
This species has a remarkably restricted range, found almost exclusively within the remote and challenging terrain of the Kimberley, making it a highly sought-after bird for twitchers.
