About These Birds
Japanese White-eye
The Japanese white-eye is a familiar garden bird across East Asia, beloved in Japan where it is called mejiro. These sociable birds form flocks outside the breeding season and are important pollinators of plum and cherry blossoms. Unfortunately, introduced populations in Hawaii have become invasive, competing with native honeycreepers.
Australian Yellow White-eye
The Australian Yellow White-eye is a small, gregarious songbird found in mangroves and coastal scrub in northern and northwestern Australia. Weighing about 9.85g with a wingspan of 11.2cm, it has bright yellow underparts and the characteristic white eye-ring of its family. It forages in flocks for nectar, small insects, and soft fruits.
