And that is a good one to get confused by. As a really obvious point to make as
a general hint for anyone in this situation. Quite apart from the specific
features, the bird is so untidy it is clearly in transition, then the question
becomes what two stages could it be between. Books typically only include full
plumage stages. Given that question, it allows you to interpret it to match
almost adult male Australian Golden Whistler from any of the books (along with
shape etc).
