The Zebra Finch is a small, highly recognizable Australian finch, named for the zebra-like barring on its tail and flanks. It is a social and vocal species.
Where to spot
Widespread throughout mainland Australia, except for the humid coastal areas, inhabiting grasslands, savannas, and shrublands, often near water sources.
How to spot
Look for their distinctive zebra-striped tail and listen for their characteristic 'tek' calls. They are often found in large, noisy flocks around waterholes.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round. Breeding is opportunistic, often occurring after rainfall, making them very adaptable.
