Hello All,
Today I saw 3 species of honeyeater, the Brown-headed, Eastern Spinebill and the Lewin's within a few minutes, probing the same area on a Eucalyptus tree. On closer inspection of the tree, the area they were interested in was a damaged area with visible sap. Do fellow birders know wether honeyeaters consume tree sap or were they possibly just looking for insects.
 
Regards
Anthony
