Corvus paradoxus Daudin, 1800 The yellow wattlebird (Anthochaera paradoxa) is a species of bird in the honeyeater family Meliphagidae.

[4] The young yellow wattlebirds have much smaller wattles, a paler head, and a browner underbelly than the adult birds.

[8] They are uncommon on King Island, and two possible sightings recorded on the southern Mornington Peninsula in Victoria lack material evidence.

[2] Yellow wattlebirds live in a variety of habitats including both dry and wet forests, and from sea level to the subalpine zone.

[2] Harsh, raucous and grating, their calls have often been compared to a person coughing or belching,[2] with a gurgling growk or repeated clok sound[7] Yellow wattlebirds feed on the nectar of eucalypts and banksias, fruit, insects, spiders, honeydew, honey bees on the flight and manna (crystallised plant sap).

[9] Yellow wattlebirds can pollinate eucalyptus trees by carrying pollen in their bills or on the feathers of their heads.

[2] Yellow wattlebirds lay 2–3 eggs that are salmon-red, spotted and blotched red-brown, purplish-red and blue-grey.
