I thought this was just a sparrow but the red markings around the eye aren't something I have seen.

Pretty sure this is a female Superb Fairy Wren

Yes. I should have realised as it was in the vicinity of other superb fairy wrens. I tend to photograph the blue ones as an easy identification.

The blue ones are definitely more eye catching
