I’m located in the foothills of The Dandenong rangers in Victoria and a bird has decided to build a nest (or rather dig a burrow) in the vertical earth wall (it's a site cut on a sloping block). It’s way too quick to identify. It’s very dark in colour and small (maybe 5-15cm) but may have some orange or pink on it. Any ideas on what it would be?
Sounds like a spotted Pardalote
Did it look like this, a Spotted Pardalote?
