I think Leo's uncorrected comment is still
appropriate. I'd suggest this record of a White-fronted Honeyeater in the ACT is
truly remarkable. Not only to be here but to be noticed and observed by several,
at a well known place. ACT is well out of its range and its usual habitat type.
(I have only seen them in NW Victoria.) In contrast, the Regent Honeyeater
is a regular although rare bird here and we are in its normal range and
habitat type and we have had the occasional breeding colony of them also.
This White-fronted Honeyeater is far more surprising than a Powerful Owl at ANBG
and a Black-chinned Honeyeater record or a Regent Honeyeater.
