Yellow-faced Honeyeaters – Calygavis chrysops are found in the eastern and south eastern parts of Australia. They are not present in Western Australia or the Northern Territory, so not a bird species that we get to observe very often. Our recent observations of Yellow-faced Honeyeaters have been in dense forest.

It has been more than 5 years since I last went to Australia, and I was even less of a qualified bird photographer then than I am now.

The Kimberley Flycatcher had previously been a sub-species of the Lemon-bellied Flycatcher , but is now a species in its own right as of August 2019. In fact it is a rather dull bird for Australia! If you came across a Lemon-bellied Flycatcher further north in Australia you would easily believe it was a different species.
