2013 Australian Birds - Pardalotes set of 4 Sheet Stamps MUH
This stamp issue is the fourth in the Australian Birds series. It focuses on pardalotes, a family (Pardalotidae) of foliage-gleaning, mainly insectivorous birds native to Australia and sometimes known as "peep-wrens" or "diamond birds". Pardalotes are small, around 8.5cm to 12cm, with short tails and wings, longish legs and thick stubby beaks. he name "pardalote" derives from the Greek word meaning spotted, as small whitish spots are common to the family, although most particularly to the Spotted Pardalote and Forty-spotted Pardalote. They prefer a eucalypt habitat over anything else - often the high outer foliage - and they play a strong role in controlling lerp infestations (a sap-sucking insect).
