Bird ID help needed

[Denis Wilson <>]

I second David's likely ID of Fuscous Honeyeater.

Tail length and body angle all suggest Honeyeater to me.

Lack of facial marking is problematic for a good ID,, but it does suit the Fuscous HE.

Looks a bit like Fuscous Honeyeater from that rather indistinct picture.  Where was it seen?

Oops i thought i had! Here's the picture. Sorry about the quality. Despite appearances this bird didn't have a yellow facial mark.

Thanks, Joanne
