Bell Miner 2

Posted by Helen (Melbourne, Australia) on 12 July 2007 in Animal & Insect.

I found this Bell Miner Manorina melanophrys yesterday . I have never seen this elusive bird so close before. The Bell Miner or Bell bird has a very distinctive call. You can hear it here

I wasn't sure if I liked the uncropped version better or not ... you can have a look and judge for yourself.
