Dear All,
If it was a Satin Flycatcher it would be hundreds of miles west of its
normal range.

Could they be Satin Flycatchers. Cheers Jeff.

Tom, I suspect that this is just aberrant plumage or a colour morph as I 
have heard of birds like this before. For instance, Bill & Jack Moorhead had

a bird more extensively blue near Bundaberg and I received photos of a 
wholly blue bird from Cape York.
