Where to spot
Occurs in drier eucalypt woodlands and mallee habitats across eastern and southern Australia, from Queensland to South Australia.
How to spot
Look for the black chin and white nape, its key identification features. Listen for its repetitive, piping calls. Often seen foraging high in the canopy, requiring good binoculars.
When to spot
Active year-round. More easily detected during the breeding season (spring to early summer) when calls are more frequent and territorial displays occur.
