Dear all,

I photographed this bird at the swimming hole (Lubok Simpon) in Taman Negara, Malaysia, and have a hard time IDing it.

Anyone any idea?

Thanks in advance!

It looks like one of the Blue Cyornis flycatchers to me, but I've limited first hand experience with the complex to comment further.
 
Andy is correct, female Indochinese (what was Tickell's), based on the dull blue-grey upperparts making it a female, while Malaysian female would still be bright blue.
