Seems the upper parts and chest are quite glossy and the tail's lower part quite dark (although always hard to judge from photos taken against the bright sky). So I would agree that this is the Satin Flycatcher, however I'm not a bird person so I prefer not to confirm the id...

I am hesitant to support a Satin Flycatcher ID without a good view of the breastband, undertail, or in good light. Leaden is of course much more likely in this habitat, although Satins could be moving through

Pretty sure I have some additional photos that may help - will take a look tonight

A few more photos added showing additional details - and his companion, who didn't make the initial cut.

A hard one; sorry I can't help.

I will go with Satin Flycatcher because of the dark undertail. Leaden have a much paler undertail. Chris
