david , 3 days ago to random A Spotted Pardalote we encountered at the Highfields Falls reserve, just out of Toowoomba. Completely fearless and quite curious, it foraged around about 3-4m away from us for a good minute before moving on. #AustralianWildlife #WildOz #Bird #SpottedPardalote

david , 1 month ago to random We interrupt your regular program for this important announcement. I've finally managed to photograph my local Spotted Pardalotes. My BirdNet-Pi has detected their call for weeks now, but I hadn't managed to see one. This fellow happened to pop down for a peek when I was returning from the letterbox. #Bird #AustralianWildlife #WildOz #SpottedPardalote A tiny, but strikingly beautiful bird on a branch. The bird has deep black upper colouring liberally sprinkled with bright white spots, and a prominent white brow. Underneath, it is shades of yellow and red, from rich egg yolk yellow on the breast and tail, to pale buff-yellow on the belly, and a little splash of red on the rump. Here it is pictured side on, facing right, so you can see it's great colour variation from head to tail.
