Australia’s answer to the hummingbird, the Eastern Spinebill is able to hover while using their long bills to collect flower nectar. This bird also snacks on insects and invertebrate.

A bit disconcerting when one of the world's largest moth species is attracted to your headlamp! Found this beautiful Hercules Moth in far north Queensland.
