This little guy is a Blue-faced Honey Eater. He was rescued after a phone call from the ladies at My Salon in Peregian Beach phoned us (via the RSPCA). When we arrived he was sitting beside a window in the courtyard whilst he parents were madly calling him from a close by tree.
He is almost able to fly by himself. He could fly down but didn't have enough strength to actually get off the ground by himself. Given his location in a busy shopping area that is frequented by dogs we thought his best chance was to take him back to the centre.
He is a fit and healthy bird and will be released in another area when he is ready.
