    A very common bird, but the Monarch Butterfly fly-bye was a surprise. Both were having a feast on the flowering onion in the early evening light.

    Whilst on holidays I found this bird enjoying the nectar from the native trees. Taken with a circular polarizer on the lens to silhouette the bird with the blue sky. Trust that I got the ID on the bird correct as I had never seen one of these before.

    'Flitting around'

    At the same time that I took the young Magpie this New_Holland Honeyeater was flitting around behind in the cypress trees and whilst I was sidling up to the Maggie I kept taking shots. Thought that I could share as I haven't uploaded one of these for a while and also new camera still a challenge!

    New Holland honeyeaster caught in flight. I know it's not the best shot, but they're very hard to catch in flight. I haven't seen anybody else do it yet! (though I know somebody will show me a much better one after I post this! ;-)

  15. 'I'm looking at you!'

    'I'm looking at you!'

    I had been down the creek and the light was fading so decided to go for trip up the road but before I could get out of my back paddock this little beauty was sitting on the top of one of the trees and posed until a 'Wllie Wagtail' decided to dive bomb it and then it was off for safer territory!!
  16. 'Do you likemy party dress?'

    How Many Honeyeaters?

    How many new holland honeyeaters do you see in this photo? What is the world record for most in one photo?

    "I didn't fall off the wire!"

    This is the fellow that was on the wire and stayed around for me to get more photos! I just thought that the other would bring a smile to your faces!! Happy to share this one!
  21. 'Bird on a wire'

    'Bird on a wire'

    I was lucky enough to spot this beauty as I was driving along and got some really good shots of it and it's friends. I was going to name it 'They told me I could fly' but thought other more appropriate! BS!.
  22. Two New Holland Honeyeaters

    Two New Holland Honeyeaters

  23. New Holland Honeyeater

    New Holland Honeyeater

    I've long admired many of the great photos of new holland honeyeaters on this website. Yesterday I went out to get my own photo. After 3 hours of picture taking, this is the best I could get. Constructive criticisms welcome.
  24. Whiskered Honeyeater?

    Whiskered Honeyeater?

    Well no, officially it's a New holland Honeyeater but I think the old common name of Whiskered Honeyeater is far more descriptive. Unfortunnatly the girls also have whiskers
