Good morning,
I am trying to identify this bird, looking through the field guide all I can find that is similar is the female scarlet honeyeater. Can anyone enlighten me please

Can you please tell us where you are? It can rule in or out some species. Maybe Brown Honeyeater given Olive edge to wing, size will be bigger than a Scarlet. Short tail makes me think immature or juvenile. As always happy to be wrong.

A location would help a lot as Dale has pointed out. It's not a Scarlet I don't think as the bill is not slender or curved enough. I was leaning more towards brown but something still does not sit right with me due to the pattern on the wing and on the head.
