Definitely either that, or Ash-throated. Not familiar with this ID, but sure that they're all Myiarchus. @DLecy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLecy Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 The bill looks big because the bird has missing feathers around the base of the bill. I'm actually not convinced that this is a Myiarchus flycatcher at all. Structure and proportions are wrong. Size is incredibly difficult to judge based on a single photo such as this. Not claiming I know what it is, but what about a worn/molting/young Bell's Vireo? Something similar to this? https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/485694601 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoutedrop Posted October 9, 2022 Author Share Posted October 9, 2022 thx DLecy, discussions like this make me feel better about my not having ID'd the bird, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
