On Saturday 28 March at midday for at least 30 minutes, small groups of
Honeyeaters (species not determined as hands were full of sandwiches
rather than binos) were moving E or SE through the tall tree tops (some
pausing apparently briefly) above the BBQ area at the London Bridge
carpark at the south end of Googong - when we returned at c. 14.30 after
a short walk, none were obvious.

The autumn migration of Yellow-faced Honeyeaters has started in the
Tinderry area of NSW. Small groups of c.10 / per 5 mins were winging
their way SE across the Queanbeyan River around the latitude of
Lighthouse Creek. This was late morning on 29 March.
They were about tree-top height; some backtracked, and took dips in
the river, before moving on.
Also saw 3 Brown Treecreepers together on one branch - it looked like
a family group.
