Noisy Friar

Not the prettiest bird but what a beautiful collar to balance the lack of feathers on the head. We call them leatherheads or chatterboxes. All day long they chatter away to each other and fight and squabble over the grevillea blossoms.

Those chatterboxes in the garden!
Delightful!

My father called them the 'banana bird'. I wondered why but have caught them having a great time gathering nectar from the banana flowers.
