Bit tatty but there does seem to be streaking on throat and back

I agree about the apparent streaking on throat but buff coloured wings suggest immature Golden Whistler. The apparent streaks could be slight scalloping below the eye. Chris

I'm not convinced, and don't think the wings are rufous enough to be an immature Golden but will yield to majority consensus. Any further takers?
