灰林即鳥 Grey Bushchat ?

I took this at MPNR the same day as the Buzzard (21/10/05). It does not seem to have a yellowish base to the lower mandible and I wondered whether it might be Dark-sided flycatcher?
 

 
TIA

I just guess could it be a female Grey Bushchat.
 
It showed the  
white supercilium and forehead,  
dark face and ear-covert,  
complete dark bill,
upperpart with washed-out brown,  
uppertail-coverts close to chestnut while contrast to the mantle,  
white throat and vent  
and  
grayish to brownish of the breast and belly.
 
If it is a Dark-sided Flycatcher, it must obviously show brown wing-bar, dark gray on the mantle, short bill and the flycatcher’s habit.

This is another image of the same bird - does this help at all? It definitely behaved like a flycatcher.

Thanks very much George and Falcon. I went to the OBC Images site and it does look a good match.
