Thank you. I hoping sometime I find something other then a Pacific Slope. Now I need to find a Hammond's and new to our area Yellow-bellied Flycatcher

Primary projection is indicative of Willow - Wood-pewees and other Contopus genus sps are known for their long PP. Additionally, pewees tend to be darker and grayish. Flycatchers are tough, though, and it's easy to get mixed up. :)

Aren't Wood pewees found in trees. Most of the ones I've seen are high up. And wings are too light. This was in the reeds and willows above the water.
