Spotted
The Carpentarian Grasswren is a shy and cryptic grasswren, characterized by its streaked plumage and preference for sandstone habitats in northern Australia.
Where to spot
Restricted to sandstone country and spinifex grasslands in a limited area of the Gulf of Carpentaria region in the Northern Territory, Australia.
How to spot
Search rocky escarpments with spinifex. Patience and a keen eye are essential, as they are extremely wary and well-camouflaged. Listen for their quiet, high-pitched calls.
When to spot
Active year-round. Best observed during the cooler early morning or late afternoon hours when they are most active and potentially vocal.

This species is known for its remarkable ability to disappear into seemingly sparse spinifex and rocky terrain, often running rapidly and silently rather than flying when disturbed.
