Many thanks to all who replied.  The general consensus was that our bird was a female or immature red-capped robin.  There's definitely a reddish mark above the bill.  This was seen on the Mulligan's Dam walk, near to the gate you go through down to the dam.

Jill, did anyone respond?
 
Certainly a robin but I suspect it could be a female/immature Red-capped rather than a Scarlet as it doesn’t have much of a white nose-spot.  There looks to be a bit of a reddish tinge there, perhaps more obvious on other photos you might have.
 
They’re certainly at Mulligans, in particular over the ridge to the NE of the woolshed.

At Mulligans Flat this morning and took this.  Maybe a robin - a male scarlet was seen earlier this week. Appreciate any help.  Apologies for poor quality.

thanks

Jill
