PapaDMH Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Any help with this drab little mystery bird from Richardson Flat, Summit County, Utah, August 23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akandula Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Bump. My first impression was a juvenile American Redstart... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phalarope713 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 It definitely could be a redstart, but the bill shape seems off. What about a young Gray Vireo? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackburnian Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Hmmmm.... any other pictures? I'm having trouble with the tail length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phalarope713 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Gray Flycatcher also struck me as a possibility. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaDMH Posted September 3, 2019 Author Share Posted September 3, 2019 This was the only shot I got before it took off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaDMH Posted September 3, 2019 Author Share Posted September 3, 2019 Wish I had better pics. But I'm glad I'm not the only one having trouble even identifying what KIND of bird it is. Flycatcher, warbler, vireo ... and FWIW, Merlin came up with Western Bluebird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackburnian Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 This really is an interesting bird, but Gray Flycatcher is all I can come up with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
