The Blue-faced Honeyeater was present again this morning at the ANU,
although only fleeting views were obtained in the vicinity of the
Arts School. While searching I found a juvenile Little Friabird and
later in the morning an adult Little Friabird to the south of the
Arts School. Alastair Smith found the Blue-faced Honeyeater to the
east of the Arts School while we were looking at Friarbirds. Steve
Holliday refound the Blue-faced Honeyeater in the Banksia
integrifolia at the east end of the Pauline Griffin Building on
Ellery Crescent. This appears to be the best place for a good view
although the bird may not be present for extended periods of time (>
1 hour) and only stays for a few minutes. On its third appearance it
was behaving as a Blue-faced Bee-eater!
Many thanks to everyone who contributed to us enjoying this
exceptional visitor to the ACT.
