I found it in my father’s Eremophila collection which is about a three acre block that is full of flowering natives at the moment. White-fronted Honeyeater (Phylidonyris albifrons) (4) Heard them before I found them. I saw at least four different birds, but there may be more there. This is my first sighting of these birds on our property. Tried unsuccessfully for a decent photograph for nearly an hour, but as you can see I didn’t get one. Great to see all those different birds around at the moment. Not sure what is going to turn up next.
