Hi Julie,
Yes, it is a Crescent Honeyeater , and certainly a young bird but not a juvenile. The bird has a yellow gape and the eye colour does not look right for an adult.
It is possibly a female.
Regards,
Mark

Subject: [canberrabirds] Out of Area ...ID confirmation?
I managed these photos of a honeyeater at Tathra on the weekend and I'm hoping it's a Crescent Honeyeater ... juvenile? I have seen a few before but never managed photos worth saving.
Confirmation or otherwise would be appreciated.
