This little New Holland Honeyeater fleetingly landed in front of me, just long enough for me to quickly take this picture before it took off again. I was lucky this time because they are usually way too fast for me to get a good picture of.

I don’t remember ever seeing this honeyeater before. #Bloomscrolling #Honeyeater
The #RedWattlebird (Anthochaera carunculata) is a bird native to southern Australia.
It is the second largest species of Australian #honeyeater.
This beauty was so trusting. It was intently focussed on this discarded sweet on the footpath, pecking away and checking on me periodically as I photographed from only a few feet away.
The sexes are similar in plumage. And I read with interest that juveniles have less prominent wattles (1 cm or 1/2 inch long fleshy growths) on either side of their neck and browner eyes.

Stocking up - the video!
Yellow-faced honeyeaters went to town in the fernery today along with several Grey fantails & Eastern spinebills. Collectively they cleaned up on passion vine hoppers & the honeydew these bugs leave on plants.
From here the honeyeaters, like most Victorians, migrate north into Southern Qld for winter & return in early spring. We’ll be waiting.

Yes, now you ask 😄
Scarlet honeyeater, Myzomela sanguinolenta, from a distance in a tree (it’s there, centre frame) and closer up, singing. A gorgeous little drop of red amongst the greenery.

Blue-faced honeyeater (Entomyzon cyanotis [not cyanosis as autocorrect believes, sigh]) on an agave. Brisbane River riverwalk. Bonus citycat ferry.
