Yesterday afternoon and this morning there were still a few yellow-faced and white-naped honeyeaters moving through the ANBG, as well as (this morning only) a party of scarlet honeyeaters.

 

Also lots of spotted pardalotes, apparently migrating, and the odd rose robin; the rose robins do not seem to be on the move.

 

I didn’t see the scarlets (had no binos on me), but for about 10 minutes I heard their distinctive tsip-tsip contact calls in and near a flowering tree (Angophora costata?).
