Hidden in plain sight. The person who spied the nest suspects a weebill?

I'm inclined to favour Weebill too, though there are a few other possibilities which I'm not willing to rule out from this photo.

I agree with Ryu. See my sighting with a bird in the nest for comparison: Small (Robin, Finch, Thornbill etc) Smicrornis brevirostris (Weebill) on 3 Oct 2010
