Juvenile Blue-Faced Honeyeater

This Blue-faced honeyeater wasn't too impressed with the rain. I have witnessed siblings feeding  and watching over each other when the parents are away from them. The juvenile's face is olive-green, their bib is grey. They are very playful and even though they are known be  aggressive, I have never seen this behavior in these birds. They are always chased by the more territorial birds. They forage in foliage, blossoms and fruit
