What type of honeyeater is this ?

I got pictures of this bird this morning at Brisbane QLD. Is this a White-Throated Honey eater or a White-napped honey eater ? It was at a far distance so there may be not enough details.

yes, one of those, but you can differentiate only when you can see the whites of their eyes - actually the eye crescent and/or the nape crescent neither of which can my old eyes discern sufficiently from the pics, sorry

White-naped Honeyeater, I can see a slight red eye crescent in the first photo.

I have zoomed in all my pictures but could not get the eye colour. Shall try again to get closer to this bird next time.
