Blue-faced Honeyeater and frog
By Birding-Aus, on July 11th, 2014
I’ve just watched a Blue-faced Honeyeater kill and eat a small tree frog. Anyone else seen, or heard of the bird tackling vertebrates?

I’ve not seen a blue-faced HE taking vertebrates but I have seen horn-billed Friars take skinks & frogs… cheers, martin cachard, cairns _______________________________________________ Birding-Aus mailing list Birding-Aus@birding-aus.org To change settings or unsubscribe visit: http://birding-aus.org/mailman/listinfo/birding-aus_birding-aus.org
I saw one take a skink under a building at the Atherton High School. The birds come in after lunch (after lunch) when the kids return to class.
