PS As I was walking around Isaacs Ridge I found myself reminded of the end titles theme from Star Wars and realised that the memory came from hearing a Crimson Rosella calling - a section of the call was the same as a part of the music. I don't recall hearing a bird call which was so reminiscent of a piece of music before.

I went for a walk at Isaacs Ridge on Tuesday evening and saw/heard all the usual birds, but one unusual call in a gully was a Yellow Robin. I've only seen Yellow Robins previously around the ACT in reasonably undamaged and dense forest. There was plenty of shrubbery in the gully where the bird was calling, but it was still a surprise to me.
