Dark-Sided or Grey-Streaked Flycatcher please?

Dark-Sided or Grey-Streaked Flycatcher please?

Po Toi 21/09/2013

I stand to be corrected but to me, the chest patterns are very much those of a Dark-Sided but might this be a juvenile?  Also, the Dark-Sided tend to have a white throat, whereas the markings on the Grey-Streaked go all the way up to the beak .. Your opinions will be much appreciated ..

Thanks in advance .. Cheers

This is Dark-sided.

The wings of juvenile Grey-streaked extend past the tip of the tail and Grey-streaked would show grey streaks on the breast.
