Yes, looks like a juvenile bird, the last photo shows well the olive-grey above and the plain yellow-buff below. I also had one in my garden this week: Acanthorhynchus tenuirostris (Eastern Spinebill)

I’ve checked the Gippsland field guide and based on appearance of tail feathers and speckled chest and sharp beak it could be a Little Wattlebird Anthochaera Chrysoptera

Often a huge mass of plant will come from a single, not too thick stem which can be cut off at groundlevel leaving the plant to die. You may have a number of plants. They usually lurk under bushes and trees. When it dies/dries it may be unsightly but not as sappy to deal with. It would be best to remove any largish seed pods (to greenbin or ?) when you cut the plant, so they can't dry, open and spread more seed. If too much of the vines grow it may start to break the underlying plants. https://weeds.dpi.nsw.gov.au/Weeds/MothVine

Yes it’s a pretty nasty weed, unfortunately very, very present all throughout my property when we first moved in. However we see all sorts of Honeyeaters going for the nectar, Red Wattlebirds, Little Wattlebirds, Noisy Miners and of course the New Holland Honeyeaters - they love it! I try to pull it out where I can without damaging the rest of the plants.
