I meant to add these to the list earlier but got sidetracked - White-winged Chough and Apostlebird, both attacking car windows, mirrors and shiny hubcaps in several places around the eastern "inland".
Thanks for contributions. I attach the list. One thing I notice is that parrots and cockatoos, among our most abundant and inter-active species, are absent from the list. They can be at least playfully aggressive to one another. Perhaps,
for some reason, they do not interpret a reflection as a rival. We have a regular pair of cockatoos that not only watches us through the window but occasionally perches on the window ledge and taps on the glass to attract attention.
