Red Wattlebird?

We get the Little Wattlebirds nesting in our year, but this one seems to have a bit of red showing. Could it be a Red Wattlebird?

Not much of a wattle though Steve! Bit poor I thought!

The red wattlebird's wattle is smaller than the yellow wattlebird's wattle. And how about this - the little wattlebird and brush wattlebird lack visible wattles!
