I sent this ANBGer to Andrew Cockburn who has identified it as “raNG”, previously fully blue and now in ‘deep post-nuptial moult”.  So much going on.

Margaret,

 

I reckon there is really only on species it can be, the Superb Fairywren, Malurus cyaneus subsp. wobbleheadus. It is photos such as this that make for good “wotsit” questions.

Cheers,

 

Mark
