Do you have additional photos?

This is the only one I managed to get. I'm checking with my friend whether she got other photos...

Agree structure seems match Mugimaki best but I have never seen a Mugimaki Flycatcher with such week contrast (no contrast really) between the (usually darker) face and the (orangish) throat. Still, I can't see any other possibilities.

Here is one from Po Toi in 2009.

Although you can't see it very well, it has almost no colour on the underparts.
Paul and I discussed this for some time and eventually agreed on Mugimaki, almost by default.
Peter and Michelle also have one here from this year
