Apostlebird
4 sections
The Apostlebird *(Struthidea cinerea)* is a highly social Australian bird, recognised for its close-knit family groups that roam the open woodlands and farmlands of inland eastern Australia. Rather than living alone, these birds are almost always seen together, foraging on the ground and communicating with a chorus of scratchy calls.
