Blurry Honeyeaters? W. Australia (1 Viewer)

Taken in February from video in trees at Serpentine Dam picnic area, SE of Perth, WA. The first was total silhouette before I enhanced it and not sure if pics 2 and 3 are the same bird as Pic 1. Any chance of a suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

I reckon the first is a Brown Honeyeater lad.

... and I think the other two are as well.
 
Having checked Xeno-canto for the call it does match the 'chirp, chirp' of the first bird. Great work from such blurred pics! Thank you both for your expertise.
 
LOL I'd just uploaded an even worse one to the Gallery, so my eye was in!!

Not often I get an ID right so I was glad that Larry came in to confirm.

Mine was taken at Herdsman Lake in Perth, in November.
