Not a great angle but certainly not striated, most likely weebill (or yellow-rumped but looks more weebill)

Hi Ryu, Many thanks for that identification. Sorry, I have no better photographs, all were taken from the front at a low angle. Cheers

I do agree that Weebill is most likely but I'm not confident enough to confirm.

Hi All, Sorry, my bad for not getting a better shot. I am happy to leave it as unidentified. Many thanks for the suggestions and I am happy a Weebill is the best identification. All the best.
