Hi,
I also managed to get some video of the bird I mentioned in my trip report.
You can have a look at it on Internet Bird Collection
http://ibc.lynxeds.com/video/yellow-tufted-honeyeater-lichenostomus-melanops/bird-perched-branch-calling-then-flying-away-0
I saw another Yellow-tufted Honeyeater on the way out of WTP as well.
All the best,
Nick
