The yellow-throated miner (Manorina flavigula) is a standard size honeyeater that is gray above from the crown to the tail.
Pale gray bottom with light brown scalloping on the breast to the white rump, and has a black face, characteristic yellow forehead, and sides of the neck.
The exposed eye skin, beak, legs, and feet are all yellow.
The wings and tail margins are yellow washed, and the tail tips are white.
Yellow-throated miners are distinguished from the other mining by their clean white rump.
This bird is loud and friendly, yet it may be violent toward other birds and, on occasion, anything that comes too close to its area.
Moreover, fledgling birds have soft, light gray chests with no scalloping.
The yellow-throated miner may be found over much of continental Australia.
Except the east coast south of southeast Queensland, Arnhem land and the western Gulf of Carpentaria, Cape York.
This bird prefers dry forests and wooded habitats, particularly Malli.
It’s also common in parks, gardens, and fields. The yellow-throated miner is primarily a nectar eater.
Although it will also feed on insects, berries, and fruit, foraging at various levels of the canopy and on the ground.
It is frequently seen in large groups.
