It's one of the Empidonax flycatchers, they can all be pretty hard to tell apart even with clear photos of them. It helps yours has an eye ring, maybe someone can get you a species on it. I'm just not confident enough on my ability to tell them all apart to give you a species. Here's a link for you: http://www.pacifier.com/~mpatters/archive/empid/empid.html
