The first bird is a Willie Wagtail, although it looks like this might be a case of kleptoparasitism since those babies don't look like Willie Wagtails.

The last bird is Red-browed Finch.

The Cassowaries are cool. I was desparately trying to see one and you saw one with a baby! Most cool!

thanks for IDs. Yeah, my draw dropped when that male casso and his kid came out of the bush.
