My emails don’t seem to be going through lately. If you already saw this, I
apologize. I thought I’d try sending from a different address. Copy of earlier
email:
Nice pictures Jennifer! It’s so frustrating that you can get perfect pics of
one of these birds, and still have such a hard time figuring out what it is! I
was leaning Dusky at first because of the tiny dark bill and medium-ish primary
projection, but the Sibley app says dusky has low contrast edging on the wings.
Your bird has very high contrast on the wings, which fits more with what Sibley
lists for Least. Leading to the only possible conclusion that this is a Least
Hammusky Aldlow flycatcher in the Frustratium genus 😁
