    The best picture I could get of this young Brown Honeyeater. He had his bill mostly hidden all the time, and quite a bit of it you couldn't see his head LOL.

    After lunch I explored the grounds round the house and for some reason these rather plain Brown Honeyeaters really appealed to me. At least, I think they're attractive!

    Although there's nothing remarkable to look at in a Brown Honeyeater, I think they are very attractive and rather sweet looking.

    The rain came on again, but it didn't stop this Brown Honeyeater coming in for a drink and it looks like a spider had joined him!!

    Drab?

    These honeyeaters must be about the least colourful but I really think they're very attractive and have a rather gentle looking face too.

    In the trees not far from the ravens I saw some movement and clicked. Turned out to be a Brown Honeyeater, an adult this time. The light was awkward but I've done the best I can to show some colour and detail. This folks, is my last bird from that amazing trip. It would not have been possible...

    Still in the swampy area I noticed some movement in the surrounding bushes and reeds, managing to get a few images. Had to get this wee mite identified in the ID forum. A fledgling Brown Honeyeater. Quite pleased with that!

    I got my morning pictures down-loaded after lunch then got started on recording what was around the house in the afternoon. Here's a lovely Brown Honeyeater sitting on the fence - think he's wondering where to go and what to do next LOL.

    Unspectacular

    .... that's how my book describes these wee guys! Guess they're not the most showy of honeyeaters are they. Still, they do have a pretty yellow flash on the wing, don't they. Has anyone discovered what the white spot beside the eye is for? Hummingbirds have one too!

    A Brown Honeyeater was sitting on the wall, and.... ..... well off he went - quite streamlined like a bullet train. At least it's recognisable, isn't it?

    Continuing our walk through the wooded area of the wetlands, Ken picked out a Brown Honeyeater up in a tree. Not the prettiest of honeyeater maybe, but I do think he's very attractive with the subtle shading of browns.
