Bird Description:

Bright olive back, lemon-washed belly and red eye, it is a subtle beauty hiding high in the canopy.

Special features:

Beautiful rising and falling “orio-lee-oo” call — like a flute rolling through eucalypt crowns.

Did you know?:

Often mistaken for a green honeyeater — but listen for that unmistakable voice.
