219 Blue faced honeyeaters, with their distinctive brightly coloured face patches, are birds that are easily recognisable. In the wild, these Australian birds feed on the nectar of flowers produced by native and exotic trees and shrubs. But their attraction to anything sweet sees them, in some locations, become regular patrons at outdoor cafes where they help themselves to anything that contains sugar. Leave a scone with jam and cream unattended, and they will soon find it. And the more determined and audacious will even lift the lid on a sugar bowl and tuck into its contents.
