The New Holland Honeyeater (Phylidonyris novaehollandiae) is a type of honey that lives in the south of Australia.
With a large yellow spot on the wing, white brushes on the face and the corresponding white iris, this bird is mostly black and white.
There is also a small white spot on the ears and a yellow border on the tail.
The New Honeyeater is a very busy bird that rarely remains motionless enough for photographing.
The female is similar to a male, but much less.
Minors are more brown and have gray eyes, not white.
This species can be found from the island of Tasmania through Brisbane and Queensland north of Perth in Western Australia.
These birds prefer dry shrubs, although they also visit dry savannahs, forests, meadows, and plantation.
As well as gardens, especially with Grevillea and Banksia.
The honey of the new Holland vigorously feeds on the floral nectar, moving from flower to flower in pursuit of this high-energy diet.
Fruits, insects and spiders are also dietary sources.
This species is common in southern Australia, including the islands of Tasmania, Brisbane and Queensland, as well as not far north of Perth in Western Australia.
