I support Brown-headed HE.
I also note the reporter refers to himself as a "fledgling birder from Melbourne", so we ought not be too harsh on him.

Thanks to Martin for bringing this “record” to our notice. Having looked at the photograph in the blog it is obvious the bird is an adult Brown-headed Honeyeater and not a juvenile Black-chinned Honeyeater. Martin’s initial reaction was also Brown-headed Honeyeater. Any of the other banders care to comment?
