Apparently its a leucistic New Holland Honeyeater.
It was reported on Birding aus about 1 week ago.

[BIRDING-AUS] Mystery bird at Pt Cook
Just returned from a BOCA outing at Pt Cook (SW Melbourne). Weather was
cold, wet and windy - not conducive for great birding. Several of us saw a
mystery bird flying low over some scrub. It looked about the same size (or
maybe a bit bigger) than the numerous New Holland Honeyeaters that were
present, but seemed to be a very pale cream/almost white all over, with
the
possible exception of a dark patch on the head. Views were very brief in
very poor light.
Any clues?
