The New Holland Honeyeater (Phylidonyris novaehollandiae) is a small bird species found in southern and eastern Australia, including Tasmania.

These birds have a distinctive appearance, with black and white feathers on their head and body, and yellow patches on their wings and tail. They have a long, thin beak that is well-suited for feeding on nectar, as well as insects and spiders.

New Holland Honeyeaters are active and vocal birds, often seen flitting between shrubs and trees in search of food. They are known to be quite territorial, and will defend their feeding and nesting areas against other birds.

In terms of conservation, the New Holland Honeyeater is not currently considered to be endangered. However, like many Australian birds, they are at risk from habitat destruction and other threats. Efforts are being made to protect their natural habitats and raise awareness about the importance of conserving Australia's unique bird species.

I am a nature and landscape photographer based in Madison, WI, with images from around the world. I am originally from Australia, but have lived in New Brunswick, Canada, and Socorro, New Mexico, before moving to Madison. I am trained as a geologist, and still teach introductory geology classes (need to pay the bills somehow).. The love of the outdoors has strongly influenced my photography, initially in Australia, but then in the the NW Territories of Canada (I was there doing geology), and the desert of New Mexico. Now I find the beauty around where I live in Madison. If you live in the Madison area, contact me, and I can print images for you (save on postage).
