New Holland Honeyeater
Phylidonyris novaehollandiae
Least ConcernThe New Holland Honeyeater is a nectar-feeding honeyeater that also eats fruit and insects and helps pollinate native plants in southeastern Australia and Tasmania. It uses its brush-tipped tongue to exploit flowers and often follows seasonal blooms; local movements can make it conspicuous when trees are in flower. Fun fact: honeyeaters are important pollinators across Australasia and the Pacific.
