I myself have not seen a Olive Whistler so that is why I have left it for Chris to confirm, but that tiny amount of scalloping is normal for a Golden Whistler and this looks fine to be a female Golden Whistler. Olive Whistlers would have more scalloping and the colours would be darker. Also, I believe they are pretty much restricted to the higher parts of namadgi and the brindabellas around here.

Ryu, why have you gone for Golden Whistler and not Rufous Whistler? I agree certainly not Olive Whistler. Chris

Definitely not Rufous Whistler, Chris. Its grey and not streaked. Still plenty of Golden Whistlers around as well.
