" All our study species are quite challenging to study for various reasons, mostly because they're really rare and highly mobile." One of those " difficult birds" is the critically endangered regent honeyeater.
The regent honeyeater (Anthochaera phrygia) is a critically endangered bird endemic to South Eastern Australia. It is commonly considered a flagship species within its range, with the efforts going into its conservation having positive effects on many other species that share its habitat. Recent genetic research suggests it is closely related to the wattlebirds.
