Update on Nesting Singing Honeyeater

Mother Singing Honey eater on the nest
Well it took some 5 days before Mother Honeyeater was satisfied  with the nest and began to sit .
 A few days later we got a few good storms and with strong winds and heavy rain
 I  am sure Mum bird  would have been congratulating herself on her choice of nesting site.
We had some very sudden strong and very heavy rain and the nest was protected from all of it.
As yet I haven't looked to see how many eggs there are as I want her to feel secure and have only taken one photo of her.
It is very hard to see if she is on the nest because of the way she sits with her head pointing almost sky wards.
Meanwhile the Brown honeyeaters  have raised a new family and Mr and Mrs Willy Wagtail are busy catching insects for their family a few blocks away down the street and I think there is another pair of Singing Honey eaters nesting in the front yard in the Liquid Amber tree.
