There was a male Satin Flycatcher in Commonwealth Park this morning - photo below, on the left.

I have added a photo of a Leaden Flycatcher I took a few days ago, showing clearly the difference in the curve of the white bib - Satin curves down, Leaden curves up. Leadens often look quite "satiny" (glossy blue-black) on the head, duller on the rest of the body.
