It looks like the Wax Eye is holding the apple up while the other contemplates eating at its leisure. This capture is a good example of friendship, giving a helping hand even if it is uncomfortable. Photo taken in our back yard or the Silvereyes eating the apple. Please see my journal for more information of the Silvereyes.
New Zealand bird Silvereye, Wax-eye or White-eye (Zosterops lateralis).
Location Taken: Gore, Southland, New Zealand.

Brilliant. Aren’t they delightful. I have about thirty or forty of these little sweeties visiting me every day in Invercargill. Too hard to count. And they eat just about anything I put out for them.
Thanks for your wonderful comment, I am in the same boat, I love watching them.
