Tim, It is an odd pose. I think if I saw it, I would perhaps first think Striped Honeyeater but it isn't, the stripes are in the wrong place. However the only possibility that I think it actually is, is a White-winged Triller. Not an Oriole or Cicadabird. If as you say "the top of the head was striped from side to side - the light and dark brown stripes running across the head." .... then these are bars, not stripes. Bars go across the body, stripes go along the body. Philip |
