Recently had a chance to witness a localized honeyeater/ lorikeet feeding frenzy in the iron-bark forest near Chiltern in northern Victoria. Among the birds involved were Regent honeyeaters. As many of you would know there is a recovery program
going on there, with the release of captive breed birds. The nature of the flowering event appeared to have attracted a number of these birds into a small area and it was great to watch them feeding, hawking for insects and generally carrying on chasing,
and being chased by Red wattlebirds and Yellow-tufted Honeyeaters.
Difficult to film in tall trees please enjoy the following https://vimeo.com/218932212
Enjoy
