Being mostly out & busy yesterday, I only
saw the White-fronted Honeyeater briefly. Today several
short attempts came to nothing. I was looking at about 2.30 &
after about 15 minutes and about to give up and go back inside, thinking "bye
bye birdy", the familiar tocking call indicated its arrival. Made me
somewhat happier. I watched as it flitted about for a few minutes, so it is
still here but now seems to have found some other food source in the direction
of Boddington Crescent. Later I found it sitting very still in the Melaleuca or
maybe it was hiding all along. The Silvereyes have been in the Grevillea so
often this week that they may be diminishing that food source. The WFHO has
difficulty chasing out a flock of 10 to 20 Silvereyes. Today marks its week 8 on
the GBS chart.
