Whilst guiding last Monday I had the good fortune to observe a White-streaked Honeyeater in Mount Molloy. The bird was feeding in callistamon and grevillea before being chased by a Blue-faced Honeyeater. The following morning the bird was photographed by David Crawford and judged by Lloyd Nielsen to be a first year individual. This appeares to be an extralimital record for this Cape York endemic about 80 kilometres south of the nearest population at Shipton’s Flat south of Cooktown.
