Spotted flycatcher

This bird has nested right outside my front door. The nest is wedged on top of a bend in a drainpipe, partially hidden by a creeper and sheltered by the eaves. I think there are three babies in the nest but haven't been able to get a decent shot of them. They're already trying to catch any flies that buzz close enough. I couldn't identify it at first but when I posted a photo on iSpot, someone identified it almost straight away, or I'd still be trying to work it out.

The parents have been bringing a variety of insects to the nest, using a dead branch as a perch in between trips. Have seen them with moths, hoverflies and a damsel fly so far.
