Caught in the Spinifex - A Rare Glimpse of Australia's Elusive Spinifexbird and its Secretive Chick!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Don Hadden, we witness a truly remarkable moment in the heart of Western Australia's Pilbara region. Meet DH-3586, the elusive Spinifexbird - a feathered resident restricted to the challenging terrain of Triodia sp, commonly known as spinifex. This Australian endemic is notoriously difficult to observe due to its solitary nature and preference for remote areas. But wait! What makes this snapshot even more extraordinary is that DH-3586 was captured feeding a newly fledged chick hidden deep within the tangled spinifex bushes. It seems these birds have mastered the art of camouflage amidst their prickly surroundings! While not considered rare, they are certainly local celebrities within their limited range from Pilbara to western Queensland. Interestingly enough, these avian wonders seem absent from seemingly suitable habitats elsewhere – talk about being picky eaters! So here it is, an enchanting glimpse into the secret lives of our feathered friends down under. Don't miss your chance to bring home this stunning wildlife portrait by Don Hadden – a true testament to both patience and perseverance in capturing Mother Nature's most elusive moments!
