Happy New Year to you too Tracey.
Scarlet Honeyeater is indeed a delightful species. We live in Armidale and a
few years ago our Angophoras were in flower and we enjoyed and ‘invasion’ of
these beautiful birds along with several others in the same family. This year
just a few arrived but have stayed all summer, males singing away. I doubt I
will ever forget the song.
