I saw this bird this morning through the leaves at Brisbane QLD. Is this a female Leaden Flycatcher from colours match without head details?.

Most probably, although Satin Flycater may be a possibility too and also could be a young one

Thanks Ryu. Shall try to get closer next time.

Female/immature Leaden/Satin Flycatchers are near impossible to tell apart even when you get up close, usually you would try and find an adult male nearby.
I saw one this morning which wasn't with a male, so that gets to stay in the 'Leaden OR Satin Flycatcher' pile.

only if you are in an area where both occur, even then they favour different habitats

OP bird is a leaden based on range alone
