CommentI noticed a sizeable flock of silvereyes had congregated on the ground where a nearby camper had thrown out a cup of water. The birds were trying to collect any moisture they could from the ground and were so intent on doing so that I was able to approach within a metre of them without them flying. To get this shot, I also poured a cup of water on the ground and set my camera up with a wide angle lens and remote control on the ground next to where I'd poured the water. I didn't have to wait long. I notice some other species also came in (eg Superb Fairy-wrens).
