Australian Songbirds

Unique to Australia

 

In the first volume of Coolamon, Sally Longley describes the uniqueness of some of Australian songbirds. Accompanying her article is a photo of a Superb Fairy Wren – a bird which is widespread throughout much of Australia and many variations occur in different regions. What does this mature male in glorious full breeding colours, calling to attract any nearby eligible females, evoke in you?
