Bibra Lake is a decent size freshwater lake in Perth's southern suburbs. It's about 6km around the lake. Here are some small birds I saw. With the exception of the female Splendid Fairywren these were all in the same small cluster of trees - there was a female fairywren at the same location but the one shown here posed better.

A male Splendid Fairywren. In the first image it is dismantling a dragonfly.


A female Splendid Fairywren. This was on the boardwalk at the 'old bird hide' on the other side of the lake to the images above.

These are all taken with the OM-1 mk2 with the 150-400 and a MC-14 f8 (wide open) 1/1250 second. The first 5 images are ISO6400-10000; the last one iso 640. It was a bright sunny day but obviously still quite dark in the shade.
