Within a matter of seconds this New Holland Honeyeater had done a quick round of the garden beds, plucking insects from the air and garden plants. They have nested very near to us this year, along our fence line and are busy collecting food for their young.

They are one of the main honeyeaters that frequent our garden and are quite aggressive about their territory when it comes to other honeyeaters and birds. The Little Fellas call it “Boo Boo”. I don’t know why. But I do know that there are several “Boo Boo’s” that visit our garden. Not just one!
