Noisy Miner: the gangster of the bird world

Noisy Miner

The Noisy Miner is one of the most common and successful bird in urban Australia. It is a native honeyeater that is extremely territorial and aggressive towards other birds. I have witness a gang of Noisy Miners attacking birds that are larger than itself. This photograph was taken on 29 August 2024.
