I have no idea what this bird is and really need help identifying it?
Initially I thought it was a female starling but not sure if female starlings differ than males in appearance?
Is it a juvenile?
It truly has me stumped, any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

The Kiko Loop track had an abundant number of bird life and I was totally not expecting to see a Kaka. Stunning place which I'm sure not many people know about. I would highly recommend getting their for a walk.
Kiko Loop track is a 1.5 hour walk
