We expected to see Striped Honeyeater or maybe Spiny-cheeked Honeyeater (both species <150km away) before White-fronted (a mallee bird >400km away).

 

At this rate we’ll have Grey Honeyeaters on GBS charts!

Any guesses as to what rarity will be next to turn up in these drought-ravaged times?

 

Given the amount of twitchers out looking for honeyeaters at the moment, whatever it is, it will surely have a lot less chance than normal to slip through unnoticed.

 

Regards,

Leo.
