Seems like a Black-chinned Honeyeater.

Looks like the choice is between juv Brown-headed and juv Black-chinned
I was thinking the black chin was a bit too extensive for Brown-headed, but it's perhaps a possibility. It may well be the more likely species in that area. I think Black-chinned is quite scarce around Adelaide, although it does occur.

Good luck at Belair... been there twice, washed out by a cyclone first time, saw next to nothing. Second time sneezed with my rucsac on and was taken to hospital with a disc prolapse.
Not the best place for me and birdwatching, unfortunately.
Wouldn't want to call which of the two, but feel towards brown chinned , due to dullness and location.

I wouldn't write off Black-chinned on abundance though, I recall seeing one in Adelaide.

DUH!You're hedging your bets a bit with 'brown chinned'.
