Certhionyx pectoralis
A stately-looking, small, black and white honeyeater with a black back, tail and head. Underparts white with a black band across the chest. Typical long-curved bill and longish black legs.
Flitting around in the trees at the Mankajarra wetlands. Endemic to Australia.
As far as I'm aware, this is the first little Banded Honeyeater spotting on PN! I've seen this species at the wetlands before and yesterday I saw two flying around together :) First reference for identification: The Michael Morcombe eGuide to Australian Birds, Mobile App. Reference: http://bie.ala.org.au/species/urn:lsid:b...
