Red-breasted Flycatcher
(ficedula species split into Red-breasted -parva- and Taiga -albicila- Flycatcher)

images below show an individual with what appears to be a pale base to the
lower mandible therefore possibly Red-breasted Flycatcher (ficedula parva)
Taiga Flycatcher (ficedula albicila) would have an all dark bill.
However, I might add that after review by a noted
Chinese scientist / biologist familiar with these species it may be Taiga

Please see:  http://www.bioline.org.br/request?zr08050
for a good article on this split and differentiation
