The stunning, bold patterning and on this little fire-cracker is perfection! Shannon loved keeping things super loose and sketchy on this mini firetail!.

The Red-eared Firetail, also known as the boorin, is a small finch-like species of bird confined to the south-western corner of Western Australia. It occurs in dense wetland vegetation of coastal to sub-coastal regions. Red-eared firetails are usually only glimpsed briefly, if at all, as they move rapidly and discreetly through their habitat. Most observations occur when their soft voice is heard or, in flight when flushed from the dense scrub. Males and females are similar in colouring and bond as lifelong pairs that occupy a territory centred on their roosting and brooding nest site. Generally they forage on the ground, among grasses or in shrubs, where they eat seeds and occasionally small insects, pecked from the leaves of plants. They forage singly or in small flocks and, occasionally, in congregations comprising dozens of birds. They very occasionally feed in the company of other seed-eating species, especially parrots. They are much less gregarious than other species of finches, usually occurring singly, and they are generally shy, quiet and rather unobtrusive. The natural distribution of the species appears to have contracted over recent years and no record of the species establishing outside its natural range. Conservation Status: Secure.
