by the closely related Rufous Fieldwren in the dryer habitats north of the divide and east of Horsham. Generally rare, it can be locally common in suitable habitat. Diet is mainly insects, spiders, and other small creatures, but it also takes some seeds, notably from Poa grasses. Most food is taken from the ground or low in shrubs and tussock grasses. Family groups are small: sightings are usually of a single bird, a pair, or at most a small party. More

saw Rufous Fieldwren in the dune. Walk along the beach to the right until you get to Mangrove Creek. I saw small numbers of a good variety of waders, Striated Heron, Dusky Gerygone, Mangrove Grey Fantail, Mangrove Robin, and Lesser Crested Tern. The other mangrove species should also be a chance. You can return at low tide around the exposed flat rocks but be careful not to tread on the exposed mangrove roots. More

Rufous Fieldwren is common along the road. There are mangroves and a sandbank at the end of the road (S26° 06´ 23" E113° 37´ 07") where birds of interest could be found. In July 2004 I possibly saw a Shy Heathwren and a Chestnut Quail-thrush in the scrub near the start of the road (S26° 06´ 07" E113° 37´ 48"). More

The Rufous Fieldwren (family Acanthizidae) is a small (12 cm), scrubwren-like, rusty brown songbird, strongly streaked, with a pale eyebrow, throat and belly, a plain rusty rump, and a cocked tail. It is paler and more rufous than the Striated Fieldwren, and occupies arid rather than coastal habitats. It is similar to the Striated and Thick-billed Grasswrens, but has a different facial pattern and a shorter tail with a white tip. More

The Rufous Fieldwren Calamanthus campestris, of arid western NSW, was recently separated as a full species from the Striated Fieldwren (Schodde and Mason 1999; Christidis and Boles 2008) making a reassessment of the conservation status of both species desirable. A determination to make a minor amendment to the Schedules has been made in relation to Calamanthus campestris. 2. More
