Hi, one Regent Honeyeater briefly observed this morning during the Woodland survey on private property at the foot of Castle Hill. I survey there with the permission of the landholders.

It was being harassed by other honeyeaters and flew off. I searched for half an hour but could not find it again.

It is the very spot - same clump of trees I think - where I saw a Regent Honeyeater in Jan 1990 (sic) during the Australian Bird Count survey.

So that is two sightings of this species in the Canberra region this week.

Regards - David
