User's notes

I admit this photo is not the best shot of a White-eared Honeyeater. I only saw one of them as it was going through the leaves in the canopy of this eucalyptus. I kept hoping for a better shot but the bird stayed among the leaves, probably consuming lerp or something similar to supplement its diet.
