The Grey Fantail is a small Australian songbird, easily recognised by its constantly fanned tail and agile, acrobatic flight. These lively birds are found across Australia in a wide range of wooded habitats. Their energetic movements and habit of following people through the bush make them a familiar and entertaining sight for birdwatchers and casual observers alike`.`
