''Handbook of Australian, New Zealand and Antarctic Birds. Volume 5:Tyrant-flycatchers to Chats''. Oxford University Press, Melbourne.</ref> ===Similar species=== Bird species similar to and often confused with the orange chat are the [[yellow chat]] and the [[crimson chat]]; these birds are similar in size and shape. Orange chats have straighter and on average shorter bills.<ref>"Australian Chats: Epthianuridae." 23 Oct 2013. 23 Oct 2013 [http://montereybay.com/creagrus/Australian_chats.html].</ref> The adult male orange chat is rarely mistaken for another species with its vivid orange colouration and black throat-patch. The male yellow chat is coloured almost as brightly as the orange chat but without such warm orange overtone, being rather an intense lemon yellow. The grey-brown mottled females and immatures have yellow uppertail-coverts and a yellow underbody distinguishing them from the crimson chat, but they are still rather similar in appearance to the female yellow chat.<ref name=Higgins/> ===Other common names=== Orange-breasted, orange-fronted, golden-fronted or bush chat; orange-fronted nun or tang; bush or saltbush canary.<ref name=fraser /> ==Distribution and habitat== Orange chats are strongly nomadic within the arid and semi-arid zones of Australia that they inhabit.<ref name=Higgins/> They are found mainly in the interior with some sightings in the northern tropics, and very occasionally they reach the coastal areas of South and Western Australia.<ref>"Orange Chat(Epthianura aurifrons)." 2013. The Internet Bird Collection. 23 Oct 2013 [http://ibc.lynxeds.com/species/orange-chat-epthianura-aurifrons].</ref> The orange chat mostly occurs in dry, low-lying, saline environments that are rarely flooded such as sparsely vegetated [[gibber]] plains, [[Salt pan (geology)|salt pans]], [[salt lake]]s, or [[claypan]]s. They mainly inhabit low, treeless [[chenopod]] shrublands dominated by [[saltbush]], [[Maireana|bluebush]] or [[samphire]], with either open or continuous shrub cover.<ref name=morcombe>Morcombe, Michael (2003). ''Field Guide to Australian Birds'', p. 273,397. Pascal Press, Glebe. {{ISBN|9781740214179}}.</ref> They are sometimes recorded in other open or shrubby habitats, often near wetlands: low [[Acacia aneura|mulga]], low [[buloke]] woodland; open [[acacia]] scrubland; dongas (steep-sided gullies) vegetated with tall shrubs or small trees including mulga, [[dead finish]], [[Casuarina cristata|belah]] or [[Myoporum platycarpum|sugarwood]]; grassland; or [[Cyperaceae|sedgeland]].<ref name=Higgins/> The orange chat has occasionally been recorded in mallee woodlands and on farmlands, including areas over-run by [[Onopordum acanthium|scotch thistle]].<ref name=Higgins/> ===Movement=== The orange chat is nomadic, but less so than the crimson chat, and moves around irregularly.<ref name=Higgins/> Movements are often determined by weather conditions, which will affect the availability of food in an area. During droughts or dry spells the orange chat will be absent or nearly so from normal habitats and will sometimes be recorded towards the periphery of their usual range.<ref name=Higgins/> ===Banding=== According to the [[Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme]], of the 90 orange chats [[Bird ringing|banded]] in Australia from 1953–97, none have been recovered.<ref name=Higgins/> ==Behaviour== The orange chat is gregarious and mobile with undulating flight, but they are also very wary, which does not allow close interactions. They are easy to see from a distance perched atop low bushes, shrubs or trees, due to the vivid orange plumage of the male. Males will often keep watch from a tall shrub or bush whilst the rest of the flock feeds out of sight.<ref name=Higgins/> Foraging occurs on the ground or from low shrubs. Orange chats are usually seen in pairs or small groups of up to 15 birds, although flocks of more than 400 have been recorded locally. They are often spotted mixing with flocks of crimson and white-fronted chats and seen near or with flocks of [[zebra finch]]es. When flushed, the orange chat will fly high, briefly perching atop a low shrub before disappearing onto the ground and between shrub cover.<ref name=Higgins/> At the start of the breeding season flocks disperse into pairs. After the pair has formed, the male accompanies the female at all times until the eggs have been laid and chases other birds, often other males, that approach the pair; this behaviour is rarely seen outside the breeding season.<ref name=Higgins/> ===Defensive behaviour=== Defence of territory is mainly performed by males when breeding; females usually only become involved when the male is absent.<ref name=Higgins/> ===Distraction displays=== From incubation to just after fledging, one or both adults engage in [[distraction display]]s such as feigning injury by flapping along the ground. Sometimes they will not return to their nest while the observer or predator is present.<ref name=Higgins/> ===Voice=== Most calls of the orange chat are a vibrant, metallic twang ''tang'' and a softer ''tchek tchek''.<ref name=simpson /> Calls do not form a significant part of territorial activity, although the male clicks his bill when flying at intruders; this is often accompanied by a squeak.<ref name=Higgins/> A soft ''shu-shu-shu'' is used by males to call females to them. A louder ''shu-shu-shu'' call is used when feigning injury by both sexes. ''Shu-shu-shu'' is also used by parents with food to call young.<ref name=Higgins/> ==Diet== Orange chats mainly eat invertebrates, small insects (ants, bees, wasps, beetles, caterpillars and grasshoppers) and spiders that are on the ground or in shrubs. Sometimes they will feed with crimson or white-fronted chats, or with flocks of zebra finches.<ref name=Higgins/> When water is available, feeding will take place along the water's edge, although they are reported to rarely drink water. They walk more often than they hop and are usually seen on or near the ground, occasionally eating seeds. Foraging in crops of sunflowers has been observed.<ref name=fraser /><ref name=Higgins/> ==Breeding== Breeding habits of the orange chat are not well known, as no major studies have been performed. This species moves and breeds opportunistically throughout the year, sometimes three or more times in response to favourable seasons, whilst breeding will not occur in times of drought.<ref name=Higgins/> Eggs are laid from June to April, but mostly from August to November; young are seen August–November and February–May. There is little variation across its range.<ref name=Higgins/> The female orange chat will build a small but quite substantial nest in a [[cup nest|cup shape]], which is located close to the ground in shrubs or herbage, commonly saltbush or samphire. The male will defend both the territory and female during the construction of the nest.<ref name=Higgins/> Nesting sometimes occurs among pairs of crimson chats but is often solitary or in loose colonies. The nest is neat and cup-shaped, constructed of dry grass, plant stalks, hair, rootlets, feathers, wool, hair, and twigs.<ref name=morcombe /> Overall dimensions and average nest size (cm), respectively: external diameter, 8.9 and 8.9; external depth, 6.4 and 5.1; internal diameter, 5.1 and 5.7; internal depth, 2.5 and 3.8.<ref name=Higgins/> Nests are built in samphire or chenopod shrubland, around saltlakes, and occasionally on grass flats or gibber plains. Nests are usually in samphire, saltbush or bluebush; also canegrass, lignum, grass tussocks, sedges or among thistles. They are usually located on or near the top of a live plant, or near the ground under a nest-plant, sheltered from above, or sometimes on the ground.<ref name=Higgins/> During irruptions, the orange chat nests in a wide variety of shrubs, and there are records of it sometimes nesting in citrus trees. Depending on prevailing conditions, the female lays 3 or 4 whitish oval eggs, which are smooth, close-grained and coloured with brown, red, black and grey spots, especially at the larger end, reminiscent of honeyeaters' eggs.<ref name=Higgins/> The eggs measure approximately {{cvt|17|x|14|mm|in|abbr=on}}.<ref name=morcombe></ref> Both parents help incubate the eggs for around 11 days and feed the young birds once they have hatched until they can fly on their own to find food.<ref name=Higgins/><ref name=morcombe /> The fledging period is 10 days. For a few days after fledging, young remain in the nest territory and crouch unmoving under shrubs; after a few days, they will move off with the parents and join local flocks where the young continue to be fed by parents.<ref name=Higgins/> ===Predators=== If a predator approaches the nest either parent will [[Distraction display|fake an injury]] to distract the creature away from the nest and will call loudly during the display. Predators include both introduced and native species: cats, snakes, foxes and larger birds, like ravens and crows.<ref name=Higgins/> ==References== {{Reflist}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q255183}} [[Category:Epthianura|orange chat]] [[Category:Chats (birds)|orange chat]] [[Category:Endemic birds of Australia]] [[Category:Birds described in 1838|orange chat]] [[Category:Taxonomy articles created by Polbot]] [[Category:Taxa named by John Gould|orange chat]]'
