Three species of Melithreptus honeyeaters feeding together

Today in the Sunshine Coast hinterland at Moy Pocket I had the three mainland species of Melithreptus honeyeater – Black-chinned, White-naped and White-throated – feeding together in eucalyptus trees.

There can not be very many places where this is possible; I’d like to hear from anyone who has seen the three together. Black-chinned in particular is rare in south-east Queensland.
