Certainly Tasmania's rarest endemic. Not sure of the population, but would be in the "few" thousands. For such a small bird (10cm) that's not many. Fragmented distribution, a good portion on private land, suggests the outlook is not good. Hence the endangered status.

Beautiful shot. I believe this one is quite rare. Well done.
