There was a long discussion about basis of having the Eastern Spinebill on the $5 note on Birding Aus a few months ago (when the new note came out). Including an explanation as to why the colours do not match the bird.

Which local ACT bird species is on the $5 note?

 

Scoring:  100 points if you know; 10 points if you need to look at the note; 1 point if you need to consult the RBA website.  Hint – if you tilt it, it flutters its wings.
