The White-fronted Honeyeater is a distinctive medium-sized honeyeater of arid Australia, recognized by its prominent white forehead and dark streaking on its underparts. It is nomadic, following flowering plants.
Where to spot
Arid and semi-arid shrublands, mallee, and woodlands across inland Australia.
How to spot
Look for its bold white forehead and streaked underparts. Watch for it actively feeding at flowers. Listen for its varied, often musical calls.
When to spot
Most reliably found when flowering native shrubs, particularly Eremophila, are in bloom. Active throughout the day.
