Grassbirds are usually pretty skulking, but maybe this bird was trying to dry out after the rain!

Australian Pipit is a recent split from Richard's Pipit. It seems a slighter, smaller bird, and the call is more reminiscent of Meadow Pipit.

In the same bush that held the Golden-headed Cisticola yesterday, a small group of Chestnut-breasted Mannikins. Mannikins are in the same genus as the munias of South-east Asia. I was impressed by Chestnut-breasted - a new bird for me.
