sbruenjes Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 I saw this bird today at Overpeck Park in Bergen County, NJ. I believe its a Willow (Trail's) flycatcher, but I struggle with flycatchers, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how you can separate Willow/Alder FC with the photo, unfortunately. Edited July 16 by JBAS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bird Nuts Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Looks good for a Willow Flycatcher. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Location/date + appearance. This guy has a very typical Willow crest and grayish coloration. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
