I stumbled across this nest this morning along Condor Creek. The nest was about two metres up a ribbon gum among peeling bark and wedged atop a branch fork. The bird was on the nest and shot silently down into the undergrowth not to be seen again. I took this quick photo and left.

Any ideas which species lays these eggs and builds this type of nest?

Cheers
