| Comment | At this time of the year, the coastal Banksias are in full bloom. There are so many flowers that they well and truly outnumber the birds taking advantage of them. The common species were these Little Wattlebirds and a lot of New Holland Honeyeaters. But there were also some Yellow-faced Honeyeaters and in the lower areas, Crescent Honeyeaters along with smaller birds such as Brown Thornbills going for the insects attracted to the flowers and vegetation. | ||||||||||||||||||
