Mark Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 This was this morning, 11 May, on my usual Saturday trip to Lackland, AFB. There is a road just outside base that goes between large fields of wild grasses and flowers with trees along the road. I know he is a flycatcher, but some of the olive colored flycatchers look so much alike I haven't gotten them down well enough to distinguish them apart. Plus, this is a first seen for this fellow I do believe, so my first lesson on this species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akiley Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 It's an empid. I'd like to see any more photos but I'm leaning Alder. I'm not getting a Least impression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted May 12, 2019 Author Share Posted May 12, 2019 I know. I tried to get more pics with a better angle, but unfortunately the little fellow wouldn't cooperate. I could see Alder now that you mentioned it. I went back to look at my reference and description - I think maybe the eyering is main difference?
