    Is this a Lewin's Honeyeater? Queensland, Australia

    Hello! I took these photos of what I thought at the time was a Lewin's Honeyeater, but now upon review I'm not so sure! To me it looks more like a Graceful Honeyeater, or possibly even a Yellow-spotted Honeyeater. The little tuft behind the eye is awfully small and doesn't really seem to fit...

    These birds are gradually widening their range around Lake Claremont, as the re-vegetated area matures into suitable habitat.

    I think this is the only one of our honeyeaters that hovers, which it does occasionally. This bird was one of a small group feeding on a grevillia at our daughter's garden.

    So called because of the tri-lobed hard woody seed pods that adorn these shrubs. Nectar laden flowers beloved of the Eastern Spinebill who has evolved a specialist long curved bill to better access the flower's treasure trove in competition with other honeyeaters...

    It's spring here and the honeyeaters have been busy feeding at a large flowering bottlebrush tree. They are very active and patience (with which I am not well supplied) is required to catch them in a rare still moment.
