Case Moth
Identified as Psychidae on Bowerbird by Ken Harris: "Dianne, I think you picked the wrong case-moth family. The Coleophoridae are mostly very small moths, I am sure that your case-moth is one of the Psychidae"

Case Moth
Identified as Psychidae on Bowerbird by Ken Walker: "This is a great image showing a wingless female moth freshly emerged from her case. She will be releasing pheromones to attract a winged male to fly in and mate with her. As you can imagine, she cannot fly to get any food so she will not live very long. This is a rare image to catch a female case moth alive. Thanks for sharing."
