I took this pic at Gem Tree, NT (about 70km NE of Alice Springs) a few years ago and its identity has always puzzled me. In the area at the time were Slaty-backed Thornbills and Western Gerygones. This bird clearly had a red eye, consistent with both species mentioned. It looks more like a Gerygone to me, however, it lacks a tail and its eyebrow is almost non-existent. Can anyone help me out on this one?

Regards
