4 sections
The Eurasian Tree Sparrow is a compact, introduced songbird found in a limited region of southeastern Australia, mainly in Victoria and parts of New South Wales. Slightly smaller than the House Sparrow, it is recognised for its neat appearance and distinctive head pattern. Since its introduction in the 19th century it is widely considered an invasive species.
