4 sections
The Striated Fieldwren is a small songbird found in southeastern Australia’s coastal and near-coastal regions. Known for its heavily streaked plumage and habit of holding its tail upright, this bird is often heard before it is seen, thanks to the male’s clear, whistled song from atop low shrubs during the breeding season.
