Southern Scrub-robin and Purple-gaped Honeyeater can be seen. Look for Emu and Western Grey Kangaroo in the paddock. At the corner turn right (south) for about 300 metres. The thick mallee and grass trees is a chance for Western Thornbill. At the next corner turn left and follow the fence east for about 100 metres to Ongarup Creek (S34° 19´ 27" E118° 12´ 31"). The heath near the creek can be very good for honeyeaters. More

The Purple-gaped Honeyeater is a medium-sized (16 - 19 centimetres) honeyeater which is generally grey-olive above and buffish yellow below. The patterning of its head, consisting of a black eyestripe against a grey background and purple gape above a yellow streak on the throat and pointed yellow ear coverts, should separate it from other mallee frequenting honeyeaters, such as the Yellow-plumed and Grey-fronted Honeyeaters (both of which also exhibit streaked underparts).
