Pilbara Grasswren

The Pilbara Grasswren is a small, secretive bird that inhabits the arid spinifex plains of Western Australia's Pilbara region. This species was formerly considered part of the "Rufous Grasswren" complex and earlier grouped with the Striated Grasswren, but is now recognised as a separate species. With rufous-brown plumage and a characteristic long tail, these birds are challenging to spot as they rapidly move between spinifex clumps, making them a sought-after sighting for dedicated birdwatchers.
