G'day Mike It has already been discussed & agreed off-site that Patrick's bird 
on Lizard Is was an Olive-backed Sunbird. Cheers Martin CachardCairns0428 782

G'day
Remember that birds lost at sea, or caught up in cyclone or tropical storms 
quite often land on boats (sail boats, motorboats, whatever) and I doubt you 
would say that was normal habitat for them.  Such birds do turn up as 
ship-assisted vagrants.  Might this have happened to a YB Boatbill?
Cheers

Mike
