The Weebill (*Smicrornis brevirostris*) is Australia’s smallest bird and a familiar sight in woodlands across the mainland. Despite its tiny stature, this energetic songbird is often heard before it is seen, thanks to its clear, far-carrying call. The Weebill is widespread and common throughout a variety of dry, open habitats.
