Sightings:

Templestowe: 2016: September, October, November. 2017: January.
Toolangi: 2016: September.

Notes:
Their colouring and size make Eastern Yellow Robins quite distinctive, especially as they usually allow a reasonably good view of themselves.
This one has been part of a study looking at how birds have adapted/coped with an urban environment which is the reason for the leg bands.
They tend to sit still in the shadows, so sometimes aren't seen till they fly to the ground to grab something.
