G'day all
I also saw a Scarlet Honeyeater at Newstead last
week on Thursday July 3rd. It was seen at the Regent Honeyeater "spot"
outside the Whispering Gums Hotel. It was a young male very well advanced into
its full male plumage, most likely the same bird that Sean Dooley reported. It
was feeding in the Red Ironbarks and Yellow Gums but didn't stick around for
long as a Red Wattlebird chased it off. Unfortunately the Regent Honeyeater was
nowhere to be seen, but it was very late in the afternoon (around
4pm).
