Hmm, I saw some of those birds on Saturday in the Cranbourne Botanical Gardens.One clue, they are not native to Australia (I think European)
To make a point: You can't judge a bird by looking at it's bottom!! LOL

Congratulations Holly and cooee! It is a European Goldfinch. The photo is not very sharp,the bird flew into a different tree, much further away.
