For what it is worth (and with no obvious exuberant flowering), there are
several Fuscous Honeyeaters within my Kambah GBS area over the past week (as
usual at this time of year) and some Yellow-faced Honeyeaters.

Subject: Flowering tree in Lyons
At the highest point of Launceston st in Lyons a wide grassy strip leads
west towards Oakey Hill. In the middle of this is a yellow box in exuberant
flower. There were a few spinebills, dozens of weebills feeding amongst the
flowers and 20 or so larger honeyeaters. I thought yellowfaced but I
couldn't see any yellow faces (didn't have my bins and the light was bad).
They might have been Fuscous. Anyway, might be worth people in the area
taking a look.
