Not blue

The parents of this young Blue-faced Honeyeater left it in a Swamp Banksia while they went off foraging. The young birds take a year or so to develop their blue face. At first, the bare skin around the eye is yellowish, and then turns green, before finally taking on the bright blue colour I've blipped before
