Yellow-faced and White-naped Honeyeaters on the move at Black Mountain NR this afternoon

[Con Boekel <>]

Hi
Between 1300 and 1500 on the northern side of Black Moutain NR I 
observed 15 parties of honeyeaters on the move. The parties ranged in 
number from 3 to 21. All parties contained mostly, or all, Yellow-faced 
Honeyeaters. Six parties contained either one or two White-naped 
Honeyeaters. The White-napeds were nearly always tail enders. Four 
parties were flying north. One party flew south and the remainder flew 
north-east.
Spent a considerable part of the day (morning and afternoon) outside in 
the part of Turner adjacent to the reserve and observed no honeyeaters 
on the move.
