Blue-cheeked miner

Not sure if I have the right name... blue-cheeked or blue -faced?Is this bird native to Australia. This photo was taken in Queensland but I have never seen any in Victoria.

Hi Heva1
Blue-faced Honeyeater, native, common in Qld, NT (very common in places), they do occur but are not so abundant as you go south.

Thanks Ed... will keep looking here in Vic... but don't think is warm enough for them? (nor for me today!!)

Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best
