Hi Birders,
Re Simon Hayes comments about Scarlet Honeyeaters
at Ryde, Sydney. It has been my expereince where there is a heavy flowering of
Bottle Brushes ( particularly Callistemon citrinus & linearis
and their cultivars), as there is in many urban streets at present both in
Sydney and the Central Coast, that is a good time to for listen for and look for
Scarlet Honeyeaters coming to the blossums. In some Central Coast suburbs
recently I have heard and seen Scarlet Honeyeaters in bottle
brushes!
