Help needed to identify

I live in Lower Beechmont, Qld in a pole home, so I often see the birdlife at eye level.

2 days ago I noticed a very unusual bird sitting in amongst the seeds of a palm, it has been there now for the past 48 hours.  Unusual to say the least!  My bird loving friend has no idea what it is, so I reach out to you for help in identifying this little fella.

Many thanks.

Thank you so much Peter, it is indeed.  I feel like I know this little one personally now after watching him/her at length for the past 2 days.  

Kind Regards
