This afternoon after the cloud has lifted we are having the strongest Honeyeater movement I can recall seeing through this property in the 5+ years we have lived here. There is more or less a constant stream, tree hopping in groups of 5 to 10. My estimate of the maximum number in my GBS site at one time was 50 Yellow-faced and a surprising 10 White-naped (we often go through a year without recording any of them. White-eared are also in the neighbourhood, but they are year-round residents here. Brown-headed have also been calling recently and again are resident year-round in the area. Martin |
