    New Holland Honeyeater

    Yep, another local bird! Airbrush. Some trivia - it was among the first birds to be scientifically described in Australia.

    June.

    Oh God of homeless things, look down
    And try to ease the way
    Of all the little weary paws
    That walk the world
    today.

    It's like you're working with the naturalist cataloging all the species in Australia back then. I can only imagine what a treasure trove of new living things there must have been at the time that was first taking place, what with Australia having taken their own evolutionary path. I can only imagine the stars in their eyes that this was going to make their reputation among the scientific community.

    Good one, June!
