Little yellow feet!!

Can someone help me with this little bird's ID? it was tiny and in the rainforest on the rocks near a waterfall. The little yellow feet were very noticeable.
SOrry it is not a good shot.

Hi Birdie
The feet do look yellow? but my first thought was Pale-yellow Robin

HI Ed
Good to have you back on line. At least you can be more definitive than me on ID's!! it could be the pale yellow robin.Yes the yellow "boots" were very noticeable. I will post a slightly blurry side shot of it to show the shape more.
I can tell you Ed, I was in heaven finding so many little birds in the heart of a rainforest. I had no idea they would be there! I definitely saw the Eastern Yellow Robin and have posted that under photos. But this bird was not greay like the EYR.
Thanks for your help

Just realised I posted the Eastern YR under the rufous thread as I saw them at the same time.

Yes I've looked on a few sites for photos and you are definitely right Ed.

Thanks

How many were there birdie. To be honest I'm thinking aviary escapee.

No it is definitely the robin. These pictures are not good. I'm going back there next week and I'll be doing better hopefully
