	Info on individual birds
		The immature bird is differentiated from the Eastern Rosella by the blue cheeks of the Crimson Rosella, as against the white cheeks of the Eastern Rosella.
		A: The word "wattle" in the bird's name refers to the fleshy appendage on the cheek of the Red Wattlebird; in spite of its official name the Little Wattlebird lacks this characteristic, and at least one source uses the name 'Banksia Honeyeater'.
		This may explain why the local bushland is generally the reserve of the Red Wattlebird, although the Little Wattlebird may be found in nearby streets.
