Further to my recent posting on this, below are 3 images - highly cropped
and compressed - of 3 honeyeaters 'wound-foraging' on an Apple Box. (A
yellow-tufted and 2 fuscous) I can only speculate on the original cause of
the wounds - possums, cockatoos, tree-creepers (both Brown and WT in the
area), insects, natural splitting, any of those? Do the birds cause further
damage to stimulate the oozing? Does the white-eared, which may be more of
a specialist, do this?
