Large Honeyeater Family
There is 190 species of Honeyeaters,roughly half of them are Native to Australia. Many Australian Native trees and plants are fertislised by the honeyeaters, plants such as Proteaceaer and the Ericaceae and Myrtaceae Unfortunately I haven't photographed all of them at this stage but hopefully will get many of them in our future road trips. The Striped honeyeater just below was a delight when I spotted him in one of our native trees recently being only 21-23 cm in size but it did keep itself very well hidden in the thick growth. Another one I spotted for the first time...
