I can't be certain of this ID. It is a thornbill and could be a buff-rumped. The face is not clear enough to be certain.

I edited and added another photo if that makes it easier

From the second image pusilla is more likely but the eye is not red but this could well be artefactual. At this time of the year there are a lot of immatures about that are not as well defined as the adults.
