New Holland Honeyeater?

Took this today in Canberra. Closest i can find is the New Holland Honeyeater but it has only a very little yellow on it, maybe a juvenile? Or am i way off.

I've found two similarly marked juveniles (?) in a series of pictures I took at Goolwa in SA in December.

Hopefully they will be clear enough, the two on the outside of this picture of three have very little yellow on them compared with the rest of the flock that came to visit on this particular day of our holiday.

Cheers

Chris
