at Cardwell and Cape York. One of the most abundant 
birds of Queensland, especially in the Brisbane scrubs.

This is another of my discoveries. It was first shot at 
Cardwell in 1882. It feeds on mistletoe, and comes to the

In June (winter) it goes to the mountains, and sometimes 
reaches an altitude of 5200 feet.
