  1. Yes
I have known these as Murray Magpies but they also are called Peewee's and I know there are a few more.
Recently got told that the real name which they are is the Magpie Lark.
At times they can be quite flighty and I think this is down to the actual birds as well.
The ones I got here was quite happy to get its photo taken.

Don't see them in Tassie but I know them as Magpie Larks. My daughter in Queensland always has a few visiting.
 
Yeah Peewee or Magpie Lark here in NSW. They love a mirror. Normally side view mirrors of parked cars.
