This one came to my light but sat nearby in a pot plant when I found it. I have seen them many times at lights in the past but usually in nearby bushes.

Hi @AlisonMilton, thanks for your sighting. It looks like your sighting contains multiple species. Only the last photo is of a striated pardalote, the rest are young spotted. To help us verify each species, please submit each species as a separate sighting.

The wait time is highly variable. I am still waiting for IDs from several months ago.

I think they are around in greater numbers this season - 3 one night here, 4 the next night and then 2.
