Fri 26 Dec Spiny-cheeked Honeyeater Pacific Harbour Golf Course, Bribie
Island, Queensland, AU
The highlight this morning was 1 Spiny-cheeked Honeyeater. The bird was
quite vocal so alerted its presence. A bit of Striped Honeyeater
activity - very vocal - amongst the usual suspects. Photograph of S-c
Honeyeater attached.

Wed 24 Dec Pair of Horsefields Bronze-cuckoos Sandy Camp Road Wetlands
Not great photos but worth reporting as Horsefields Bronze-cuckoos are
uncommon here and this morning a pair were chasing each other around a
tree and calling.
