User's notes

These two birds were moving about together and calling to each other, along with smaller birds (fantails, robins, thornbills) in a mixed feeding flock. I thought the lower bird (also in photo 3) was a female Golden Whistler, but that does not seem right for the higher bird with the brown head.

The upper bird in photo 1 looks like a juvenile, and the other bird is just a female.
