Striated thornbill
[edit]
Striated thornbill - Captain's Flat
... that the Striated thornbill was previously known as the "stripe-crowned tit-warbler"?Source- ALT1:... that the Striated thornbill often hangs upside-down while foraging?

- Comment: best hook I could come up with for nice birdy pic
5x expanded by Casliber (talk). Self-nominated at 10:58, 6 February 2017 (UTC).
Expanded enough, well-verified, no copyvio, etc. But...my dear Casliber...as happy as we all are that this bird won't have to live with this clunky name anymore, is there a more exciting hook we can pull out of this? Eating upside-down is kind of cool, and that it pollinates while doing that (as an insect eater, so not directly interested in flowery genitalia), maybe that's something?

- I expanded it cos of the pretty picture...and then was challenged by the material to come up with something interesting. Will think some more...Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 03:45, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
