Eastern Yellow Robin.  O'Reilly's is in the Lamington National Park in the Gold Coast hinterland. It is world renowned for its bird life, including feeding time for the parrots, meaning they are not afraid of people. If you are lucky enough to stay, they will also come to the balcony to be fed.  This robin was spotted on one of the many walks.  He was 1 of 6, not just in the area, but in the same tree.  I've never see so many together before.
Looking out over Moran Falls in  Lamington National Park on the Gold Coast
This is a magical place, with lots of waterfalls, trails, camping, and it's only a couple hours from the Gold Coast. 
It gets busy so book your camp spot here. http://www.nprsr.qld.gov.au/parks/lamington/about.html
You can also stay at O'reilly's Rainforest Retreat, same area but really nice cabins!
