CommentNot one ,but two of Australia’s smallest birds. I had been trying to catch these birds in flight but it was an almost impossible task ,so waiting for their turn at the bird drinker was the next option. I was pleased that both the birds were close enough to capture them both in focus. I was pleased with this image as it shows the plumage features of this species which is often hard to see as they feed in the upper and middle storey of the dry sclerophyll forest.
