Having just drafted the text for this species for the forthcoming Annual Bird Report I can make the general comment that the statistics back up these anecdotal observations. In particular the abundance and reporting rate metrics are down significantly on the 30 year average for both general records and Garden Bird Survey records.

This is a sp I used to see quite a bit without looking for it, but recently I realise I have rarely seen them. I continue to see Red-browed Firetails commonly and Diamond Firetails uncommonly.
