Painted Honeyeater @ Morayfield

["russ lamb" <>]

Five birders converged on this little patch beside Sheep Station Creek Sunday 
arvo. We found lots of mistletoe, but none flowrering or fruiting. We even 
heard Mistletoebird, but no Painted Honeyeater. We managed Spiny-cheeked, 
Striped, Lewin's, Yellow-faced, Brown and Scarlet H/E's but not what we were 
after.
   We had a good time interacting with a couple of locals who thought we were 
looking for koalas (do people really do that!!), and managed to intercept and 
safely return a 2 yr old boy in Spirderman pyjamas and day-pack who was 
heading-off into the bush on his own grand adventure ,with nary an adult in 
sight. (My how these Sunday arvo's can be dreary in outer surburbia)
