The MFF is still with us.  3 mixed flocks through the garden during the last hour, possibly motivated by the abundant transient silvereyes. Apart from those:   G fantail, G whistler, Brown Thbll, YFHE, weebill.  Surprisingly no spinebills, but perhaps they’ve moved on.  The below were all present about the same time, within a metre of ground level in one sprawling Japanese Magnolia.  The YFHE is extracting a grub from a flower.  Probably this is going on in hundreds of Canberra gardens right now.
