Leaden,Satin or Broadbilled Flycatcher

I was excited today when I photographed what I thought was a Broadbilled Flycatcher in Hervey bay Qld. A more experienced birder friend suggested it would most likeley be a Leaden FC but when I looked through a couple of books I found the Satin FC had similarities. Very confusing but lovely little bird.

I posted a photo at [linl]http://birdwatchersonline.net/forum/showthread.php?p=698#post698[/url]

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm going with a leaden as well susy. Is it an easily approached bird that frequents a part of the bay i can find easily (hint hint)? You have done well to get such a good photograph as the first one. Absolutely stunning.
