Conopophila rufogularis
Named for the rufous-orange patch on its throat, this youngster does not yet have the patch. These little Honeyeaters are a light grey-brown on the head and down the back. The wings have yellow along the outer edge.
Alone in this tree, the young one was going for the nectar in the flowers on this Paperbark Tree (Melaleuca sp.) that was in the water at Mankajarra Wetlands.
