Daylight robbery by thieving Silvereye (Zosterops lateralis) in foothills on way up to Wallaman Falls this week.
Large-billed Gerygone (Gerygone magnirostris) chased robber off twice then gave up. Explains why the nesting birds hadn't made much progress in the week since I first spotted them starting work in tree over small creek. Seeing the behaviour some compensation for no-show by Little Kingfisher, primary target along the creek.
