These tiny (4" 10.5cm) foliage gleaners are common in eucalypt trees right across Australia.

I love seeing these birds from afar! I wouldn't mind seeing this image cropped from just above the see through opening at LLC. Wish the shadow below the tail was not there. Great pose by this beautiful bird, with a perfect slight head turn too :-)
Yes, very nice and I agree the perch is a little overwhelming, so cropping some off looks like a sane solution. Bird is beautiful and happy to have the opportunity to see it. Thanks for sharing it!
What a pretty bird. Adding to the other comments, the BG is a bit noisy and the bird a tad oversharpened. Above the dark wing feathers there is a slight S/H halo.
