Hi @rawshorty , @Liam.m , sometimes find these difficult to tell especially the females so any help is appreciated. Did think this one was a Leaden Flycatcher. Thanks.

Hi @Liam.m , I am looking at my calibrated monitor and I see white edges on the wings? Throat looks pale to me? Yes they can be expected but I really don't think this is one.

Hi @RodDeb and @rawshorty, I think this bird is a good contender for female satin? Very obvious buffy edges to the wing, darker plumage on throat and face then I’d expect for Leaden. It’s migration time at the moment and they tend to pop up in unexpected spots (like rufous fantails). I spoke to Luke and he agrees. Hope this is an adequate explanation.
Cheers,
Liam

@RodDeb , yes I see that from your initial entry, surprised you did not question the change?
