ID for Birds VIC Mt Baw Baw

Taken in March on Mt Baw Baw VIC. There were lots of Flame Robins, Grey Shrike-Thrush & a Flycatcher, but the first 3 bird photos I am not at all sure about the ID. Please help.

Hi Kerry, not sure of any of your birds ID, but I don't think the last is a Flame Robin - red (flame) is not red enough, no obvious white patch above the bill, colour not far enough down the chest and undersides, and no white wing bar? As always happy to be corrected, I think this is one of the Flycatchers, but no idea which one.

I think you missed the text attached to the photos. It’s the forth photo I think may be a juvenile or immature Flame Robin, you can see a bit of a buff broken-arrow wingmark. The fifth photo is either a female Satin or Leaden Flycatcher. Thank you for yor reply.

Sorry for the confusion, was looking at the fact sheet under the last photo. Nice photos by the way.

Your first 3 photos are all whistlers.
