We, no doubt like many or you, regularly see Eastern spinebills around our
grevilleas. It was most interesting during our recent trip to south-west WA to
see the Western spinebill, and to compare them with the species with which we
are more familiar. Attached are a pic of the Western, at Margaret River, and
one of the Eastern taken this arvo here in Ainslie. (We also saw Western
rosellas in WA, again an interesting comparison with our Eastern species.)
