Hi All,
 
This morning I went out to check on the White-fronted Honeyeater. There was a Red Wattlebird in the Grevillea. With some encouragement from me, it left. The White-fronted Honeyeater flew in about two minutes later. I phoned Kendall Wheeler (Roy Wheeler's son) who lives in Kambah, who came straight over. We have just been watching the bird for 15 minutes. Same place. It was hard to film, staying pretty much in the centre of the bush, although approachable within 2 metres. It is not calling much, but is looking very active and sleek again, in contrast to yesterday morning when it looked quite unwell.
