Unclear if this bird was Red Wattlebird or Little Friarbird. The call was a peep noise and there were two what I think were young birds and an adult with them. Flighty though and only one photo.

Pretty sure it's a red wattle. I can kind of make out the colouring. The juveniles have a single note call.
