Snap, crackle, pop! I missed getting a Cooper's Hawk pic posted last week. But, here is a Western Kingbird.

Agreed. Don't think we can go any farther without audio.

I do not have an audio and it was too long ago to even remember if I heard it. I appreciate your help. Thanks!

Not striking me as a Willow

 

Probably not, I was only going by color which I know is deceiving.

I would not jump to conclusions about a bird like this. Habitat sounds better for Gray flycatcher, although in May it could certainly be a migrant. Vocalizations are often key for identifying empids and visual IDs based on single photographs can be nearly impossible, especially when important features such as primary length are hidden

Ok, thanks. I will have to see if I have any more photos of this bird.

Might be possible to narrow it down further

Maybe Willow. It doesn't look gray enough for the other two. Thanks!

What was the habitat, if that's not possible exact location would be helpful

The photo was taken in May. The location was Goldendale, WA, Klickitat County. Habitat is dry [meaning not irrigated]  farmland, sagebrush, and pine trees. Thanks!

Empidonax sp - I’m thinking either Gray, Dusky, or Willow

Sneaking this in this morning before the new bird is posted. I'm on vacation in Missouri so almost forgot to post.

Well?

I'm still trying to get a shot since I haven't been able to locate one in my photo stash.

 They work! They’re likely snow geese, no way to tell if there’s any Ross’s in there. 

Thank you so much!

Posting the photos again...hopefully they will work.

I can't see them either now. Same with your swan post @lonesome55dove

Yep, I can not figure out why that happens. The photos load and are viewable then poof they disappear.

Sorry, I don't know why I have such a hard time posting photos...this sort of thing  happens a lot. Try right clicking on the photo then open it in a new tab or window. Thanks!!
