About These Birds
Black-eared Miner
The Black-eared Miner is a critically endangered honeyeater endemic to the mallee shrublands of southeastern Australia, closely resembling the Yellow-throated Miner but with a distinctive black ear patch. It requires dense, mature mallee eucalyptus habitat for survival and has suffered severe population decline due to land clearing and hybridization with the more common Yellow-throated Miner. It feeds on nectar, insects, and lerp from eucalyptus foliage.
Ashy Myzomela
The Ashy Myzomela is a small honeyeater found on islands of the Bismarck Archipelago in Papua New Guinea. Weighing about 14g with a wingspan near 13.8cm, it is largely grey in plumage and uses its curved bill to feed on nectar and small insects. It inhabits forest edges and secondary growth.
