Anyone know what this bird is?

Found this lovely little bird scratting around the edge of the lagoon. Googled him/her but couldn't see anything that looked right. The reddish mark going down by his eyes on to his neck wasn't on anything I could see...hope somebody might know what this is!

Dashing off up the coast to Forster now with the family for five days to stay with our daughter-in-laws Mum...
