            New Holland Honeyeater (Phylidonyris novaehollandiae canescens) - 20221028-02

Distinctive honeyeater found in coastal heath and gardens. Underparts white with black streaking. Back, wings, and head black with yellow panels on tail and wings. Distinguished from the similar White-cheeked Honeyeater by presence of two smaller white patches on side of face, rather than one large patch. Feeds mostly on nectar but supplements its diet with insects. Often found near flowering Banksia.  (eBird)
-------------
This busy honeyeater was taking a break from foraging in the flowers for nectar to have a taste of the rain instead.
