I wish. Only seen them far up in trees and in the shade.

 

[John_WA]

Let's try that again.............how about Yellow-faced?

 

[Joshua-B]

Yellow-faced looks right IMO... maybe |;|

 

[Silverwolf]

Nope.

 

[John_WA]

Hmmm, short of ideas now! How about Noisy Friarbird.....

 

[Joshua-B]

Yellow-plumed?

 

[Silverwolf]

Yellow-plumed was what I expected someone to say, but neither are right. I hoped that the presence of streaks on the chest would have made it more obvious. Another image:

 

[Joshua-B]

Sure it's not a yellow-plumed? |;|
lol - I have absolutely no idea

 

[Joshua-B]

Wait: Is it a second Singing HE?

 

[Silverwolf]

Wait: Is it a second Singing HE?

You got it. Two images from the same photo (cheating a bit but oh well). Next theme is Sclerophyll forest birds.

 

[Silverwolf]

Here it is. All birds were found in Bunyip (but two were taken elsewhere in the vicinity).

Some are fairly easy, others not so. Let's hope it lasts a little longer than the previous.

I tried to make it look a little organized in the time I had.

 

[Joshua-B]

Ooh - much trickier!!! |;|
1: Geeze... this is the trickets of them all! Possibly a Leaden Flycatcher?
2: EYRobin
3: Lewin's HE
4: Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... Beautiful Firetail?????
5: Southern Emu-wren
6: Crescent HE
7: Olive-backed Oriole?
8: Fan-tailed or Brush Cuckoo?

 

[Silverwolf]

I'll start off by saying I've never seen a Leaden Flycatcher, Southern Emu-wren, Fan-tailed or Brush Cuckoo.

 

[Joshua-B]

Wait, did I get none of them right?

 

[Joshua-B]

Is 8 a Pallid Cuckoo then?

 

[Joshua-B]

Is 8 a Pallid Cuckoo then?

 

[Silverwolf]

You got some right, but I don't want it to fade in less than a day!

These are the correct ones:
2. Eastern Yellow Robin
3.Lewin's Honeyeater
4. Beautiful Firetail
8. Pallid Cuckoo

The tail on 1 should be diagnostic, if that helps at all.

 

[Silverwolf]

Anyone else?

 

[John_WA]

I'll have a go -
1) I *think* its a robin.....I'll try Scarlet
5) oh boy...........White-throated Treecreeper?
6) Grey Fantail
7) Yellow-faced Honeyeater
Not really sure on any of them though!

 

[Silverwolf]

1- Scarlet Robin
5- White-throated Treecreeper
7- Yellow-faced Honeyeater
are correct. But what could 6 be....?
