Eyrean Grasswren (Amytornis goyderi)?
Not sure as your "hill" clue confounds me.

Nope. The hill comment is probably more of a hardcore birders clue really. Arthur was pretty close with his guess.

Correct!!! Short-tails are only found in the Flinders and Gawler Ranges of SA, hence the hills clue. Well done.
