Rob,

Absolutely. There are many Brown-headed Honeyeaters in Namadgi NP. They
are a common species there. With a reporting rate of 5 % to 40 %, going
by the COG Atlas which is the book to consult for questions like that.
Not to mention my GBS Report which gives status information of birds in
Canberra.

Hi All,

I went for a walk in the Orroral valley in Namadgi National park
yesterday and saw a group of small honeyeaters zipping around.
Unfortunately I didn't have my binoculars (was busily testing out the
70-300mm zoom on the SLR).  I thought they were white naped honeyeaters,
but looking at the photos, the birds' breasts were not white and the
definition of the bands on the nape were not as distinct as the white
naped honeyeaters I've seen in the past.  Has anyone seen Brown Headed
Honeyeaters in Namadgi?  It seems to be the likely species.

Regards,
Rob
