What a beautiful bird and pictures that you have taken.

**MikeNArk** · 06-07-2023, 12:55 PM

I had a feeling that there was a flower involved in these photos.😊. What better place could you find the Honeyeater. Beautiful shots of the bird and flowers. I'm glad that nature brought them together.

Exceptional photographic artistry here, EM. What a fantastic treat and many thanks for sharing.

Nice! I really like the second shot. It looks like a subspecies of Brown Honeyeater. The ones in Queensland are much more green. For some reason, they occur further south in WA than in the east.

We have families of these and the new Holland Honeyeaters that live in our Bottlebrush Tree.

The lighting does some good things to that bird.
Good catches.

Nice! I hope to plant callistemon and grevilleas in our garden to attract honeyeaters.

Plus perhaps a Banksia menziesii which is the nicest Banksia I've seen.

We do have a lot of flowering shrubs in the garden that the Birds seem to like such as a giant LillyPilly tree
