Yet another singer!

This a pic of a noisy miner an Australian native honeyeater.
 
They  mainly feed on nectar and fruits and this one can be seen enjoying my Pittosporum berries.
 
They’re somewhat on the aggressive side, and frighten off any small woodland birds, but,  I’ve also seen them take on Butcherbirds, Magpies and Kookaburras whilst cranking up their shrieking bird-call…. …Hence the name “Noisy Miner”.
 
Fortunately, sometimes the Rainbow Lorikeets can keep them in check!
