Very pretty, looks similar in body shape to a wren over here.

Thanks we don't have any true Wrens in Tasmania. We do have Fairywrens and Scrubwrens but apparently they don't cut is as Wrens.

Beautiful little bird and nice shot.

These Silvereyes can be hard to get due to the speed in which they move.
I know this from experience and have only a handful of worth while keeper shots.
So well done on getting this little one and I am going to disagree with you over not worthy as Wrens.
We have got the same here and they are all looked at as good wrens from the Fairy to the Field ones.
But I an happy when I get any sort of wren though I am far more happy when I get these as I find them harder to get.
