Looks like a juvenile little black cormorant to me. But not entirely sure although, the cormorant it could be mistaken with
would be a juvenile great cormorant. However those have a yellow chin which I can't make out here.

It's a Brahminy kite - beautiful raptor! Reminds me of the fish eagle.

I would have thought so as well, but it's lacking the white eye-brow.

Yet there is not other bird
that has that big white cheek patch AND the throat/breast pattern like your bird than the white-
cheeked honeyeater.

Funnily enough they look just like a common moorhen, but the Ozzies refer to them as dusky moorhen.

Possibly a hybrid. Head and throat are wood duck, but the rest doesn't fit in.
