Spotted
The Tasmanian Thornbill is a small, active thornbill endemic to Tasmania, known for its somewhat plainer plumage and arboreal foraging habits within dense forests.
Where to spot
Endemic to Tasmania and Flinders Island (Bass Strait), Australia. Inhabits wet eucalypt forests and temperate rainforests.
How to spot
Look for its small size and general brown plumage. Listen for its high-pitched, slightly plaintive calls. Often seen darting through dense foliage, making it a challenge to spot clearly.
When to spot
Active year-round. Best observed during daylight hours, as it is a diurnal forager.
It is often found foraging in the dense understory and mid-story of temperate forests, sometimes joining mixed-species flocks to enhance foraging efficiency and vigilance.
