Firstly thanks to all who have responded to me, I have forwarded on notes to 
Chris.

Lloyd, this seems best yet and certainly something I hadn't considered which is 
silly really as Western Bowerbirds breed in Olive Pink BG's!

Great stuff from all, many thanks.... from myself and Chris Benesh.

Don't stop with the suggestions though;-)

Sounds very much like a bowerbird to me - the Great Bowerbird does something 
similar at times. There seems to be calls which sound very much like that of 
Magpie-lark mixed in. When you put this up on the screen and analyse it, the 
latter seems to be part of the whole call - mimicry along with the more 
strident calls? The more I look at and hear it, the more it seems like a 
bowerbird.
