Hello
Please can I hazard a guess with the green morph!

Looks like the grey to me based on the rufous tail mainly, does look like there is grey on the head from what we can see?

I see the bird similarly.
In particular:
1. Tail feathers cinnamon
2. Wing tips darker brown
3. Definitely brown area above the rump
4. Lighter brown area to the sides
5. To my eye, the head extending down to the neck area is greyish.
6. Rump bright yellow
I actually see no olive or green in this bird.
A couple others looked at the pics and thought Olive morph, but why not Grey (or even brown) morph.
