White-winged Fairy-wren (female)
Malurus leucopterus leuconotus
-22.0743, 113.899
Field Notes
Description:
The female is sandy-brown with light-blue tail feathers. I think that applies to the females of all three subspecies.
Habitat:
Flitting around behind the sand dunes at the Tulki Beach Campsite, Cape Range National Park.
Notes:
On the occasions that I saw these little birds, they were usually in the same vicinity as the Variegated Fairy-wrens.
