Little Wattlebird

Original - Little Wattlebird (Anthochaera chrysoptera) feeding on a flowering Corymbia ficifolia, Austins Ferry, Tasmania, Australia

Reason

I still can't believe that this didn't pass FPC. The image quality is there, and it is practically spewing in enc; The wattlebird feeds on nectar in the surrounding flowers.
