Noisy Miner
The noisy miner is a bird in the honeyeater family, Meliphagidae, and is endemic to eastern and southeastern Australia. This miner is a grey bird, with a black head, orange-yellow beak and feet, a distinctive yellow patch behind the eye, and white tips on the tail feathers.
The Noisy Miner birds also love to feed on our Grevillea bush. While they are native to Australia, they chase most of the smaller birds away, so they are not my favourite birds.
After 2 days of 41 C temps (night time temps didn't go below 29 C), tomorrow is supposed to be around 26 C. 41 C forecast for Tuesday. Tomorrow is the first official day of Summer and if the recent heat is any indication, it will be a long hot Summer.
The flowers in my photo from yesterday are all burnt off from the heat and I am hoping that if I cut them back, they will flower again.
