Medium to large honeyeater of inland Australia. Its heavily streaked plumage, large pale cinnamon throat patch and upper-chest are notable. Also note the dark tip to an otherwise pale pinkish bill. A fairly common species across the drier inland parts of Australia including parks and gardens in towns. Its loud and smooth calls are a characteristic sound over much of inland Australia.
