'Myiagra' Flycatcher

[Tom Tarrant <>]

Today while birding near Darwin Hospital Sheryl Keates and myself found an
interesting male 'myiagra' flycatcher, I assume that it is a race of Leaden
Flycatcher (Myiagra rubecula) but it is certainly has a quite different
sheen from the 'powder-blue' one that is seen on males that pass through our
area in SE Queensland, it also had a much more prominent crest although it
didn't raise it whilst I was watching.

Images are available on my picasa site at

Also present was a probable female Leaden shown here

and Broad-billed Flycatchers

Unfortunately I haven't had time to annotate the pics with too much detail,

Any constructive comments welcome,

Tom
