Bird 404. Diamond Firetail.. by
✨ A jewel of the Australian grasslands, glowing softly with crimson

Photographer. Heather Thorning

🕊️ Macnjenni Bird Gallery – Information

Scientific name: Stagonopleura guttata

Range & habitat: Southern Australia; found in open woodlands, grassy fields, farmlands, and scrub with access to water

Key features: Striking finch with a grey body speckled in white “diamond” spots, bold black tail, white flanks, and a vivid red rump, bill, and eye ring

Diet: Grass seeds, small seeds, and occasionally insects
Nesting: Builds a large, rounded grass nest with a side entrance, often in shrubs or low trees; sometimes includes a “false nest” chamber above the main one

Fun fact: The extra chamber in its nest is thought to help confuse predators or provide insulation

– Bird 398 Spotted Pardalote

Photographer: Heather Thorning

Perth, Western Australia

🐦 Information

Scientific name: Pardalotus punctatus

Range & habitat:

Widespread across much of Australia, including Western Australia. Commonly found in eucalyptus forests, woodlands, and even suburban gardens

Key features:

A very small, brightly patterned bird with black upperparts covered in white spots, a yellow throat, red rump, and pale eyebrow. Often heard before seen, high in the canopy

Diet:

Feeds mainly on insects, especially lerps (tiny sap-sucking insect coverings) found on eucalyptus leaves

Nesting:

Unusual among small birds, it often nests in tunnels—either dug into earth banks or in tree hollows—ending in a soft chamber lined with bark and grass

Fun fact:

Its repetitive “chip-chip-chip” call is a familiar sound in Australian bushland, often revealing its presence high above
