Ain't common names fun. Bananabird in northern NSW always referred to the Blue-faced Honeyeater. Lewins Honeyeater was a new one for me. Buln Buln is a Mallee Rickneck although it would appear that elsewhere this may also be a Lyrebird. What the heck ! White-headed Water-hen a new one for me but must be Coot Hopping Johnny I thought had to be an Apostlebird but babbler may also be a possibility. In northern NSW Apostlebirds were always Lousy Jacks.
