And the male Crescent Honeyeater that I reported to the chat line on 29 June. After about 90 minutes it was attacking our TV room window so aggressively we were concerned if would harm itself and we had to shoo it away. It’s been around since and back
there a few times, but luckily only at the window for short periods.

I was rather surprised to see recently a Spotted P engaging its reflection in a neighbour's car mirror. I was surprised because I haven't seen such behaviour in this species before.

We have a Spotted Pardalote which is spending some time attacking its reflection in one our windows. I assume that it is establishing/defending a breeding territory.
