Taeniopygia bichenovii.

There were heaps of these little guys at Oxley Creek Commons. Could have done with Allan's 600mm lens as they're quite small.

Quite an interesting bird really ;-)
I wish! 600mm lenses don't come cheap (I think current RRP is < $12k).

This is a beautiful shot David. Great little bird, definitely don't get those here in Perth. I love the layers in the image.

I didn't realise we had them here either, until I saw them ;-)

golmuso - They are quite cute :) I didn't realise they occurred in the Brisbane area until I saw them myself.
