Noisy Miner - A Bird of the Honeyeater Family (Five Photos)

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Here are a few shots I took of a Noisy Miner, Manorina melanocephala, at Lake King in Rutherglen, Victoria. These are in the Honeyeater family. They live in colonies and are very aggressive in defending their territory. In doing so they make a very noisy calls of pwee-pwee-pwee-pwee.
