Anyone ever seen or aware of a bird that looks to me to be a pied willy wag tail?

I saw the little fellah bouncing around as all willys do.

Looked stunning!

i got a photo of him that I will load later. I am just curious if there is another birds similar in stature but different in colour? this might explain the differnce.

It might be a Restless Flycatcher.

White Winged Triller cock, in nuptial plumage is my guess. Assuming you get them down there. They are black and white, approx. willy wagtail size. Took me a while to work out what they were when I first saw one years ago. Pretty birds.
