Looks like a great bird spot, Carole. I've never seen either of these species, but they are birds I'd love to see someday and you've got some excellent photos of them here. The Spiny-cheeked Honeyeater is very unique-looking!
ReplyDeleteI love the name "honeyeater." Very nice photos!
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question on my blog about Double-created Cormorants: The double-crest is visible on adults only during breeding season. Thanks for asking the question as I'm sure others will be wondering too. I added this information to the post.
