This is the nominate race form of the White-naped honeyeater - the Western Australian race chloropsis was recently split from this species and is now Gilbert's honeyeater (a better name than some of the original suggestions). I am feeling lucky to have seen both birds recently since the split, even though I had seen them before. The split makes sense to me as there is a big gap in their distribution across the country and this one has a red eye-crescent, while the Gilbert's has a pale greenish crescent.
No. 114 in my Birds of Australia set.

I had such an amazing day yesterday! We spent the day over at my wife's parents house, were we had a family gathering. Played lots of Holy Boards & Beer Sticks, ate way to much food, maybe drank a little too much beer, and just enjoyed hanging out with everyone in the beautiful weather. Once we all headed back inside it was time for a little nap with my nephew. (I think I slept more then he did)
For the day that was supposed to be the end of the world, I would say it turned out pretty sweet ;-)
Happy Sunday!
Mid-afternoon and Kailey has gone into her soft crate for a nap. I notice that Pooh has been banished (he'll be back inside in a day or two).

This is a red-necked grebe a favourite of country music fans, that we saw on a road trip yesterday.
They are nesting along the waterfront in Toronto.
Two of the chicks wore themselves out and took a break on mom's back.
I took over 400 shots so you will be seeing more of the grebes in the near future.
Podiceps grisegena
Like other grebes, the Red-necked Grebe ingests large quantities of its own feathers. Feathers remain in the bird's stomach. The function of feathers in the stomach is unknown. One hypothesis suggests that the feathers help protect the lower digestive tract from bones and other hard, indigestible material.
The Red-necked Grebe migrates over land strictly at night. It sometimes migrates over water or along coasts by day, in large flocks.
