Saw my first Varied Sittella the other day. About 7 of them climbing all over the tree. It's likely they've always been there and I'd just never noticed until then. Pretty cool. They're very small, about 11cm.
The ones I saw were the nominate race known as orange-winged sittella. There's 5 different races covering most of Australia.
