I have two birds in mind, but don't want to influence you. What do you think it is? (there is a white line going from the eye to the back of the head , and one around the nape ?) The red beak has me baffled.
Some ideas please

Some ideas please
If noboby has a go at any ID, I tell you, I had two ideas. I have both birds around my place, The Brown-headed Honeyeater and White-naped Honeyeater. Owen confirmed my first impression, we are convinced it is a juvenile Brown-headed Honeyeater.
The eye in photo 2 is typical, so is the olive-brown back. There was a large flock of youngsters in the bush today.

Young Honeyeater, best guess Brown-headed?
That's funny, we posted exactly at the same time. Great job.
