Definitely a weevil, but not Lexithia, which has a longer and thinner rostrum. Hard to guess what it is without seeing more of it.

Curculionidae (family)

THanks Liam.m. Yeah I only thought about it later. I did hear a couple of ravens when I started, and a few more calls but I wasn't paying attention to them. And afterwards I wondered about those hackles. I was too focussed on the parrots!

Hi @KylieWaldon, I think you're right. I went through the backlog of unidentified bird sightings yesterday and may have got a little 'trigger happy' if you will. The angle on this bird in the first image is also a bit odd, but I tend to agree that the lack of those diagnostic throat hackles tips the scales in favour of Little. I'll change the ID now.
