Hmm! A study like that would make much more sense in the birding books rather than just showing shapes of bills. Good idea, Tony.
Whistlers and their ilk are always prying some bit of bark off something! Industrious little birds.
Too kind, as always, Mick. I just stare at the pictures sometimes and hope to find a worthwhile theme tying them together.
I do the same on occasion, but not to eat anything found crawling underneath.
Tony do you have BB honeyeaters all year at Tyto? They appear to move on from Daintree about May and return in August but we did see them in Lakefield in June...??

I thought all Metallics long gone from here, but came upon flock of mainly immatures at back of rainforst block near airstrip just the other day. They'd have to be never-wents!
