Hi Annette,

That's a Golden Headed Cisticola. You'd be very lucky to get southern emu wren here!!!

Cheers,

Julian

Around lunchtime today at Lake Ginninderra peninsular, in the grassland section, I saw what I think were a couple of southern emu wrens - I have never seen before - so very unsure???? There were a couple of similar birds together with a small number of superb fairy wrens, hopping from high grass to fence.

 

Can anyone tell me what it is (photo attached - not great shot)?

 

I saw similar bird flying around near the tip of the peninsular. Also a flock of red browed finches too.

 

No crested shrike tits though...

 

Many thanks

Annette
