A Crooner (Gavicalis virescens virescens)

The area where we were filling our faces was surrounded by bushes and trees and in them appeared a Singing Honeyeater.

Needless to say this was a first entry onto my Life list.

BTW I think I must have clicked on the "Delete" button instead of "Save" when I first tried to upload this picture. Must make sure I don't do it again LOL
