MANY THANKS TO ALL OF YOU!! :)
Welcomed this migratory gray-cheeked thrush into my back garden early afternoon Sept 7. A first sighting and photograph for me. I saw it again just before 8 pm after a heavy rainfall as it was foraging in the soft earth.

I adore the beautiful Spiny-cheeked Honeyeater, a bird whose plumage is a wonderful display of colour & detail. Its chin & chest are a soft, beautiful pale orange that fades into a wash of yellowish plumage with delicate brown streaking across the rest of its body. However, the bird's most distinguishing feature is the "spiny cheek", a bold patch of white bristles that radiate out from beneath the eye, giving its face a striking, feathery texture. All of these features, combined with its coral-pink, black-tipped bill, make this honeyeater a true standout of the mallee.

I adore these beautiful honeyeaters! Easy to see why they are sometimes called the Lipstick Honeyeater!
Shots I took of this species in the Flinders Ranges were less than ideal, so I was happy to at least get this reasonable pic in the Moree Common on my drive back to Brisbane.
August 3, 2007, Firefighter Austin Cheek and Captain Kevin Williams of the Noonday Volunteer Fire Department answered their last call. They were killed in a structural collapse while fighting a residential fire. To all those who loved and knew them, they will never be forgotten.
The Spiny-cheeked Honeyeater is still in Royal Park. I took a number of shots of it today, but also 4k video. This series of three images are all from the 4k video.
Thanks for the visit,and the comments,and favorites

yes i know i'm late uploading this, to be honest i totally forgot last night lol
I've recently swapped contacts around and made a lot into friends, i've changed a lot of my images to friends only. The reason is due to the fact that it gets a bit annoying when i get 10 times more views than comments, so basically i'm trying to cut out the pervs lol
Looks best Large On Black.
OK, back to my usual style this morning :)
This White-cheeked Turaco enjoyed posing, he didn't seem shy of the camera at all. I got quite a few great shots, but this one was my favorite. I love the red around the eyes of these little guys!
Oh yeah - Happy Bokeh Wednesday to all my flickr friends!

We have enjoyed seeing it in the garden. We have two similar honeyeaters visting. The White-cheeked honeyeater and the New Holland honeyeater.
The main differences between the two is that the White-cheeked honeyeater has large white patch on its cheek, brown eyes, and a yellow panel on its wing.
The New Holland honeyeater has a white eye, smaller cheek patch and yellow wing panel.

Setophaga chrysoparia
On our way home from the chicken run a couple of our group members opted to join our trip extension to photograph Golden-cheeked Warblers. We started out birding new Stephenville and by the time we headed out we had seen about eight Golden-cheeked warblers including at least two females. The weather wasn’t ideal when we started with the sky dark and overcast and it was very difficult detecting the presence of any species of bird. Undaunted we kept searching and just about the time we were going to give up a beautiful male swooped in above us. It took a while but everyone walked away with a good photo.

Copper-cheeked frog (Hydrophylax chalconotus)
Hydrophylax chalconotus is a species of frog in the Ranidae family. It is endemic to Indonesia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, rivers, intermittent rivers, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marches, plantations, rural gardens, irrigated land, and seasonally flooded agricultural land. Formerly known as Rana chalconota, that taxon was applied to what is today named Hydrophylax raniceps. In the 1990s, it became generally agreed that Hydrophylax raniceps applied to specimens in northern and western Sumatra, Peninsula Malaysia and Borneo. Hydrophylax chalconota's range is limited to Southern Sumatra, Java and Bali (From Wikipedia article Hydrophylax_chalconotus)
Other names: Chalcorana chalconota,Hydrophylax chalconotus,Hylarana chalconota,Rana chalconota (Schlegel, 1837),Schlegel's Java frog,Schlegel's frog,copper-cheeked frog
Grey cheeked thrush, Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada, May 10, 2018
One of the less common thrushes in our area.
First time I was able to get a recognizable photo.
Catharus minimus
Gray-cheeked and Bicknell's thrushes were only recently recognized as separate species. Most of the information published in the last century on "Gray-cheeked Thrush" concerned the Bicknell's Thrush instead of the Gray-cheeked. Although Gray-cheeked Thrush has a much larger range across North America, the Bicknell's Thrush's small range is closer to centers of human population, and therefore is the more accessible species.

Full cheeks means getting food storage for the upcoming fall and winter months ahead. I am sure with the cold temps we had the past few days my friend here is thinking that winter may be right around the corner.
