There were lots of honeyeaters over Jerra last Saturday as reported by Geoff Dabb.  Since then until today there had been virtually nothing and I had begun to think that the migration was over.  But this morning there have been large numbers including flocks of several hundred.  The photo below is a portion of one such flock.  There are about 100 in the photo and they are predominantly White-naped (around 80%).  I took 64 photos this morning and that percentage is consistent.
