Any clues for this fellow taken from video in February on Motuara Island near Picton, South Island NZ. I thought Bellbird juvenile but I can't find any reference to a yellow beak.

Juvenile NZ Robin? There were LOTS of Robins there when I visited in 2014. I can't find anything that looks like it in the NZ book.

The book doesn't give any help for juvs! And I wasn't at all convinced of Robin - the legs are far too strong! Bellbird it is then!
