I agree with Jeff that the first honeyeater is a Tawny-breasted
Honeyeater - no other has that face pattern
The second honeyeater looks like a friarbird, probably Meyer's
Friarbird but the underparts are unusually pale and is that a hint of
red around the eye? Additional photos would be useful and also
location & Habitat to check possibility of the extremely rare Brass's Friarbird
The third bird is too plain to be an oriole. I would guess Little
Shrike-thrush (western subspecies are variably greyer than Australian
birds) but the bill looks too long and there is a hint of scaling on
underparts - gain, additional photos would be useful
Some great photos of some poorly-known species! Guy Dutson =============================== www.birding-aus.org birding-aus.blogspot.comTo unsubscribe from this mailing list, send the message: unsubscribe (in the body of the message, with no Subject line) to: =============================== |
