The Striped Honeyeater is a distinctive medium-sized honeyeater with a heavily streaked plumage. It's known for its rather upright posture and striking appearance in the drier woodlands of Australia. This active bird is often seen foraging among eucalypts.
Where to spot
Found in open woodlands, mallee, and shrublands, primarily inland and eastern Australia. They prefer areas with flowering trees and shrubs.
How to spot
Look for its distinctive streaked plumage and upright stance in the mid to upper canopy of eucalypts. Listen for its varied calls, which often include clear, whistling notes.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round within its range, though breeding activity might increase visibility in spring and early summer. Most active during the cooler parts of the day.

Unlike many honeyeaters, the Striped Honeyeater has a relatively short, stout bill for its family, which it uses effectively for probing bark and flowers.
