Subject: Honeyeaters still on the move. Also a question - Does a Red-browed Firetail carrying a grass stem constitute grounds for recording a breeding entry in the COG database?

This morning near the Molongolo River about a kilometre downstream of Coppin's Crossing:
One flock of 6 Yellow-tufted Honeyeaters
Another flock of about 30 White-naped Honeyeaters with 3 Fuscous Honeyeaters. The Yellow-tufteds flew back and forth along the south bank of the Molongolo before disappearing northwards downhill towards the river. The White-napeds flew around in a largish circle before appearing to head north (downhill towards the river). At one stage they landed in a dead tree about 10 metres down-sun which made for good identification.
Also seen were two Golden-headed Cisticolas and a male Red-capped Robin.
Hope to be getting my password and ID soon and will start entering my records online.
