G'day Denis,
The naming of birds can get very confusing sometimes. I remember having a heated discussion with a mate about 10 years ago over this bird. He'ld call it a finch, whereas I knew it as a Firetail.
And lets not even get started on whether it's called a Cormorant or Shag, a White-faced Heron or a Blue Crane, a Nankeen Kestrel or an Australisian Falcon, or a Nankeen Falcon, or an Australasian Kestrel!!
thank you for the information yes they do hang around in a bunch they are great to watch bouncing around

What a pretty little bird! Great shot!
Just thought I would post my photo of a red-browed finch.
The location is redhead lagoon, awabakal nature reserve, Newcastle.
