chica Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 I'm not so sure . . . least's are always described as having a 'complete bold eyering'; this bird clearly lacks that. The primary projection is not long; more moderate to short - 'shorter' leaning more least, but again, no eyering. I'd lean willow (or alder) - but unless it's singing - probably not gonna achieve absolute id Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The head, eye, and bill proportions and primary projection support Least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
