Ok, so here's the thing. I took this photo in Feb last year, the only time I had seen it, and I thought it was the female Leaden Flycatcher because it didn't look as vibrant as the Satin, however, this afternoon I saw, for the first time, what are definitely the male and female Satin Flycatchers and it made me second guess this photo. Anyone have any thoughts??
What I thought was the Leaden Flycatcher
Hopefully this will be easier to see.
At first glance I would have said Juvenile Restless Flycatcher,but then again the eye looks kind of big and round, very similar to a Robin. I will think a bit longer about it, M-L

I'm leaning towards Satin. It's definitely either Satin or Leaden. It would help to know what type of habitat it was seen in, Satins love wet forest and Leadens love dry woodland.
Cheers, Owen.
That looks like wet forest rather than dry woodland vegetation to me, Owen.
This photo was taken in my garden but I do live in a high rainfall area surrounded by bush. The Satin's I saw today were jumping around in the casuarinas, gums and some rainforest trees. So Owen, going by what you said, it is probably a Satin flycatcher. Thanks for the help. ^_^
