Yesterday after leaving the barren grounds, we stopped on the side of Fitzroy Falls reservoir and I took this photo of a Yellow-faced honeyeater with a butterfly. My question is do many birds eat butterflies as I haven’t noticed this before. What was also interesting was the complete lack of bird life around or on the water that we could see. We counted 3 ducks on the water, one being a single Great Crested Grebe.
