Either a Bassian Thrush OR Russet-tailed Thrush, hard to tell off these photos. They have pretty different calls, and you might even have both in the area.

Hi James. Does the subspecies have a name? It would be good to list it separately to the common Emu.

Nice one! In addition to the Rose Robin there is a Spotted Pardalote (beep beep), Wonga Pigeon (distant woop woop woop woop), a Grey Shrike Thrush (louder call) and Yellow Thornbill (high pitched chittering). There is another bird I can't hear but can't put my finger on it.
Petroica rosea
