I'm inclined to agree with Peter Fuller. Last summerr when I wnt to Point Cook, there were a lot of Singing Honeyeaters, particularly on the foreshore.

Looks like a Singing Honeyeater. I've seen them a couple of times at the WTP in the last year, so they might be establishing them self on the western shores of Port Philip Bay.

John Manger photographed a strange bird at Point Cook - here is the image:

and you can read about it on the Vic Birdline site.

Any ideas what it is? I'm guessing leucistic New Holland, but someone might have a better idea.

Just passing it on as I was interested in the photo / bird.
