Spotted
The Striated Thornbill is a common and active thornbill distinguished by fine streaking on its head and neck, which gives it its name. It is widespread in southeastern Australia.
Where to spot
Found in eucalypt forests and woodlands across southeastern Australia, including Tasmania, favoring mature forest habitats.
How to spot
Look for the fine streaking on its head and throat. Listen for its distinctive, high-pitched, rapid 'tsi-tsi-tsi' calls. Observe it foraging diligently in the canopy.
When to spot
Active year-round, often in mixed-species foraging flocks, especially during the non-breeding season. Best observed during daylight hours.
