Connor Cochrane Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 1. Looks like a Cordilleran Flycatcher. Grennish overall, teardrop shaped eyering 2. Willow Flycatcher. Strong white throat patch, and overall shape point to Traill's. Willow by range 3. Maybe Gray Flycatcher. Short Projection, faint wing bars and eyerings. 4. Maybe Hammond's. Appears to have a pretty blocky head. Hard to judge projection at this angle. No white on edge of tail so not gray. 5. Dark-eyed Junco 6. Orange-crowned Warbler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bird Nuts Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 (edited) Why isn't 6 a Common Yellowthroat? Edited May 20, 2020 by The Bird Nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the correction! (#6) After looking at photos of Common Yellowthroat, I am not really seeing it. The eyestipe might not be as visible due to the eye being in a shadow. Still seems to me Orange-crowned Warbler would be a better fit. But I could definitely be wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A drab female can appear to be close to the same color throughout the body. This appears to have a eye-ring not eye archs, and OCWA have a sharp pointy bill, while the yellowthroat has a wider one. I think Yellowthroat is what you should go with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 4 looks better for Gray Flycatcher because of the long bill. Compare it to the petite bill on 3, which is a Dusky/Hammond's type bird. 6 is a Yellowthroat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
