Looks like what we call House Sparrows here. They were an accidental import from England years ago. Are yours native to Australia or are they imports too?
Actually not accidental, Jack! Some knucklehead Shakespeare fan imported every species of bird mentioned in his works. Or that's the story I always heard!
I didn't know he got away with that in Australia too!
