| Brown Gerygone Gerygone mouki |

 |
Paluma, Queensland, Australia November 2010 The Brown Gerygone is endemic to the east coast of Australia and it is found in wet coastal and montane rainforest and in mangroves. It feeds mainly by gleaning insects from leaves and bark but occasionally sallies to catch its prey. |

 |
It is the smallest Australian Gerygone with a blackish lore and a pale supercilium extending to just behind the
eye. The iris is either brick-red or dark brown and most tail feathers have a broad white spot near the tip.
The song is a brisk "diddle-it-did-it". |
