You look awful wet
A Silvereye, was looking askance at a soaking wet Splendid Fairywren. Not sure, but I think the fairywren may be a young male, as he doesn't seem to be completely blue over the back. Have you ever had one of those days when things seem to start going wrong as soon as you wake up. Such was this...- delia todd

Waiting up
The only bird waiting to greet us when we got back was a Silvereye. I really had fallen in love with these pretty guys since I'd arrived and saw the first one with Ken in Brisbane.- delia todd

A good start gets better
Having only seen singleton Silvereyes before, it was a treat to see three together enjoying a feed! I was already feeling quite excited about what was in store for me over the coming couple of weeks. And I'd only been here half an hour LOL- delia todd

Capricorn Silvereye
A Capricorn Silvereye (Zosterops lateralis chlorocephalus) feasting on the Sweet Sandpaper Fig (Ficus opposita). When I was on Heron Island in July 2019 I noticed the many silvereye birds, one of my favorite birds, if not even my most favorite bird by now. So, I wanted to film these beautiful...- Michael Billerbeck

Togetherness
I'd seen a pair on my previous visit to the waterhole, so they obviously like each other. Silvereyes remain one of my favourite species.- delia todd

Ag oculus
..... who gets it then? The title was going to be 'drying off' as he's still a bit damp from a bath, but I changed my mind at the last minute. Still think these are one of the cutest of Australian birds.- delia todd

I cropped this as close as I could to see if the wee drops of water on his head would show. Maybe you need better eyes than mine though!! Doesn't he look delightful in there.- delia todd
