I took this picture this morning in my back yard (Logan SEQ) in a tree that normally has silvereye and figbirds, at first I thought i was a female fig bird but the red eyes are all wrong

Not sure either, but could it be an immature Olive-backed Oriole?
There is a green sheen to it and the beak seems to turn red.
M-L
It's an Olive Backed Oriole, Cassie. I think it's a female too, as it seems to have a dull bill.
They frequently eat similar stuff to figbirds and slivereyes too. Especially exotic berries when they're flowering.
Good sighting!
I think your right M-L! I have never seen them before
Thank you Lachlan. this is the second time I have seen a new bird in my back yard, might also be a bonus since I added extra bird baths.
