I photographed this from quite a distance, so can't confirm the true ID of this Flycatcher.
It could be a Dark-sided Flycatcher or Brown-streaked Flycatcher.

Asian Brown or Darksided Flycatcher


I have no problem identifying this Black-thighed Falconet (Microhierax fringillarius).
This smallest bird of prey posed on dead tree high-up at Japanese Garden, waiting for it's meal.

It looks like the flycatcher has its eye on a potential meal. Love your birds Tabib.

From far, they look the same. But when you capture them on camera, each is beautiful in its own way.
