Nice posting by yourself.<BR/><BR/>I saw these birds most recently at Broken Hill, but I remember them from childhood as far south as Bendigo, Victoria - in the Mallee country there. I did not know they came into the Hunter. <BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/><BR/>DenisDenis Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031115992910569116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431372659681922416.post-91381473837456347312008-04-09T15:04:00.000+10:002008-04-09T15:04:00.000+10:00Thank you Lola, I will pass on your comments to Gr...Thank you Lola, I will pass on your comments to Grahame. I am becoming a little more capable of identifying birds by their calls, but it is certainly tricky with some. With the few sightings I have had of the Spiny-cheeked Honeyeaters, this one is becoming distinctive.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>GayeGayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02899430268722758947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431372659681922416.post-35839690641990160812008-04-07T21:03:00.000+10:002008-04-07T21:03:00.000+10:00Delightful they are indeed, with their loud distin...Delightful they are indeed, with their loud distinctive call, immediately recognisable from a distance. This is an interesting post describing the breeding habits of these honeyeaters, with excellent accompanying photographs. If only we had them in the south-west of WA. Well done Gaye and Grahame.<BR/>Cheers!<BR/>LolaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
