Where to spot
Found in southeastern Australia and Tasmania, inhabiting temperate forests, woodlands, and alpine areas in summer, moving to more open grasslands and agricultural areas in winter.
How to spot
Look for the male's brilliant orange-red breast and clean white belly. They often perch conspicuously on fences, wires, or low branches in open areas, frequently dropping to the ground to catch insects. Listen for their high-pitched, wistful 'tick-tock-tick' calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round, with seasonal altitudinal movements. Most conspicuous during the breeding season (spring-summer) when males are in full flame-colored plumage.

During winter, Flame Robins often congregate in large flocks in open pastures and agricultural areas, before dispersing to their breeding territories in spring.
