The Yellow-faced Honeyeater (Lichenostomus chrysops) is a mid-sized bird in the honeyeater family Meliphagidae found on the east coast of Australia from northern Queensland to the coast of South Australia. As its name suggests, it has a distinctive yellow stripe on its face, between two black stripes, and a blue eye. It feeds on nectar, particularly of Eucalyptus and Banksia, seeds, fruits and insects and mainly forages in the foliage of trees.

What kind of lipstick is this?picture included?
Q. whats this brand?please help. i love it. if you know the color, that would be great too. thank you. im looking at MACs website. and it really could be MAC. i love their products. but does anyone know what color is could be? i like my lips to be a light pink/peach. like i usually use MACs lipglass in oyster girl. but the one in the picture is more of a skin color. do you think it could be either bare, funshine, ultra elegant, or gaily. maybe even ardor? i dont know. i really like the color in the picture.

Q. The Norseman came over at about fifty feet. As it roared past, the plane waggled its wings gaily in salute, then lifted to skim the crest of the wolf esker, sending a blast of sand down the slope with its propeller wash.

A. The Norseman (plane) flew overhead at about 50 foot elevation. As it roared past, the pilot made the plane's wings go up and down to indicate a salute, then he lifted the plane up higher to just barely miss the crest (top of the esker) esker meaning a natural made or man made, long winding ridge of sand or gravel (good example of this is a railroad bed where a mound of sand and gravel has been built up to support the rails), sending a blast of sand down the slope of the esker with the force of the propellers.
