User's notes

Pair of scarlet honeyeaters, flitting between several trees and calling frequently. Hard to get a very good picture, cause they're so tiny and were flitting around so much. This one was a lifer for me, they're known to occur infrequently at Chiltern, so was excited to finally see a couple.
