Female Australasian Figbird I think. Though it looks very green for one.
I think that this might be a female fig bird or a immature olive backed oriole camerasnoop2. The oriole has a very distinctive call. According to my field guide it say's that its call is: "ory, orry-ole", harsh scolds and scratchy warbling song, subsong includes mimicry.
The figbird makes a more squeky call.
Hope I helped.
It is most likely a Figbird because it has grey skin around the eyes and Orioles don't.
Cheers, Owen.
Also, it is probably a young male turning into an adult male, explaining the abnormal colouring.
Cheers, Owen.
Thanks. The other bird was mostly green with the red circle around it's eye. I think it is a figbird. I simply assumed it was the female pictured.
