This is the bird I originally identified as Little Pied Flycatcher but Mike Kilburn immediately reidentified as Grey Bushchat although only viewing through a 2 inch screen.
I don't know how I got it so wrong, but to save a little embarrasment I include the second photo which shows it as I first saw it when the white eyestripe was very obvious. However, the tail is all wrong for a flycatcher as Mike pointed out.
The bird was present for only 10 minutes on 16th May, a latest spring date for Grey Bushchat I believe.
