A singing honey-eater, a grey bird with a distinctive black masked and yellow streak below the mask, is perched upon a thin bush branch. Its head is partially lit by the sun. Around it are various sticks and branches from the bush, some with only maybe a leaf or two hanging from them, in various colours from green, to red, to a vibrant purple. In the background, green leaves from other bushes are blurred out.

I love the colours in this photo! And a lovely pose too~ #singinghoneyeater #honeyeater #birds #ausbirds

🌏 Singing Honeyeater (Gavicalis virescens) The Singing Honeyeater is a medium-sized bird with a grey-brown body and olive tints to its wings and tail. A distinctive black stripe runs through its eye, with a yellow patch below. Widespread across most of mainland Australia, they inhabit a variety of environments from arid shrublands to urban parks. They are omnivores, feeding on nectar, insects, and fruit. Known for their loud, melodious song, they are territorial and will aggressively defend their patch, especially during breeding. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) 📷: Photo by pen_ash via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/singing-honeyeater-bird-8909936/ DNRB
