User's notes

Plenty of this species this morning. Some were on trunks go round and round like treecreepers. Others were on fences attempting to snap off dried grass, and the rest were gorging on various gum tree flower nectar.

Thank you. They are as common as mud but often flighty and its rare for me to get good photos of them!
