Golden Whistler

Description:

The adult male Golden Whistler is bright yellow on the underside, olive-green on the back and wings, and black on the head with a bright yellow collar. The throat is white, separated from the yellow chest by a broad black band. The bill and legs are black. Females lack bright plumage. They are generally grey above, with a pale olive tinge, and paler grey below, with a buff wash. The bill is dark brown and the legs grey-brown. The eye is red-brown in adults of both sexes

Habitat:

The Golden Whistler can be found in almost any wooded habitat, from rainforest to mallee, but prefers the denser areas. Occasionally it visits parks and orchards. Not a common visitor to backyards but as I have dense tree growth and plenty of insects I'm sure that is why it and a female has been hanging around my yard since yesterday.

Notes:

Couldn't manage to get a decent shot of the female, but have included one of it anyway
