Your first bird is a Grey Shrike-thrush
The third bird appears to be a Brown Thornbill
The second bird is a Large-billed Scrubwren. The distinctive little black and white marking on the carpal joint is a feature shared between all scrubwrens... it is particularly useful in depicting LB Scrubwrens from gerygones and thornbills, as they don't have distinctive facial markings.

Thank you so very much Brandon, I will now have a good look in my guides. These are both lifers for me.

I think the second one looks like a yellow thornbill. The pic seems to show cheek markings. In my pics I have seen dark pinkish to brown cheek markings.
Hmm... my mistake, as it seems that it is a Yellow Thornbill. I haven't seen one for a while and it must have slipped my mind. Forget the scrubwren, and make it a Yellow TB. :)
I have also noted that the LB Scrubwren has a pale-coloured bill, instead of black.

Thank you all very much replies. Donna
