Noisy Miner

These little Honeyeaters are true to their name (noisy) and one of the most aggressive kinds of birds in Australia. They will drive most other birds out of their home range. Not to be confused with Indian Mynahs which are not native to Australia.

Great close up! It has that devilish look in its eye. Definitely a trouble maker...

Sharp shot of a sharp-looking bird.
Especially the bill (sharp).
Angky.

Thanks! Noisy Miners are amusing, but it's the Magpies you have to look out for!
