Observation details
**very rare: Continuing male. Seen perched on open branch in sycamore on west edge when I got there, then flew to central white-flowered euc and fed for less than 5 minutes. Flew toward one of the western sycamores afterwards and we lost it. Was not found afterwards when I was there. Dark overall with just a bit of light on the breast, blue-green iridescence on head, and long red bill tipped with black. Giving typical doubled or tripled RCKI-like calls, but faster and less harsh than a RCKI. Pics.
