Steve is right. Looks like Roger posted the wrong photo (or typed the
wrong word). It is certainly not a Emu-wren, but a male VF-w in moult.

Subject: emu-wren?
Am I mistaken but is Roger W's bird an Emu-wren?
Seems like a scruffy variegated wren. Shoot me down in flames!!!

Yesterday at Culladulla reserve. I only saw one Emu Wren, this scruffy
guy, must have just got out of the shower. Other different birds were
silver eyes, eastern yellow robin, fairy wrens and yellow thornbills;
also quite a few Black Swans on the water.
