4 sections

The Little Wattlebird is the smallest member of Australia’s wattlebird family, well known for its loud calls and energetic presence in coastal heathlands, woodlands, and urban parks across southeastern Australia. Unlike its relatives, it lacks the fleshy facial wattles, making it easy to distinguish from the larger Red and Yellow Wattlebirds.
