Hi Liam, This sighting was for the plant, not the bird ;) As I have no idea what the plant is, I do not know how to change it, but will give it a go. Thanks for your bird moderating work though :)

Have made a suggestion, but am sure this is not the correct species, just wanted to get this sighting back into plants.

Thanks all. There really isn't enough detail in the image to see the leaves properly. A contender may be Acacia varia but I'm not too sure with the detail in the image.

Fairly sure this is not an Acacia but is instead an Acacia mimic! The stems are much to rigid for anything in fabaceae
