Mid day today the White-fronted Honeyeater was seen silently feeding (I think plucking insects from foliage) in the Photinia & Hakea hedge at the front of my house (that is about 2 metres from the Grevillea). That is the first time I have seen it in there. Not to suggest it was its first sojourn there, it could easily have been in there well hidden, any number of times. A few minutes later it was back to the usual.
 
Also I need to do some form of write up of this event. I have collected some names of those who have seen it but I could easily miss out on some people. It would not be nice to accidentally overlook people. If I have not specifically mentioned you being here, would people please send me a confirmation message that you should be included (and add if you have photos of the bird).
 
It is now into its 5th week on my GBS chart (and I had almost decided I wasn't going to do another chart this year).
