Unknown bird

Does anyone have any idea what that is for an (australian?) bird?

The only person who knows about avian wildlife, is Hill Penfold.
I sent him a message on Facebook, he will tell what the bird is.

Looks like an Australian Ibis

I saw the pic some time ago, and looked for a bird with this shape and coloration on Google, but no luck yet. I only recently began using FB again a few months ago, and even then did not have Messenger installed. I've been using it lately to follow Golden Eagle nest-cam activities and related pages. I look again once in awhile but so far no luck. I wonder if you use street view in the same general area if you can find one or more walking around. I wonder if Kevin has any Aussie bird books. More likely motorcycle maintenance manuals but then again I always expected he was a man of many talents. If you feel like doing a deep dive you might try this location specific site.> federationwalk.org/nature-at-federation-walk/

huh, Admin 's bird has a "long" head

not like willi1 's one, whose head is right, not left, a "short" head

long, short, i mean from the body

it looks more like an australian magpie

I have pushed a like on both posts by Hill and krenek .

krenek got it for his good guess and Hill for the link, I have find useful. 

According to that page I think our birdie is a Magpie-lark or Peewee.

Note it has white face, also white strip on the wings seems to better fit.

Good job everybody. Take a look at this article > www.allaboutbirds.org/the-new-incredibly-patient-hobby-of-google-street-view-birding/ Sorry, I couldn't make a regular link.

the article mentioned by Hill mentions a facebook group:
