Post by: winz on August 25, 2016, 09:56:14 PM

Saw these today in Mississauga

1.

2. Could be the same as above, but taken about an hour apart, this one is terribly out of focus.

3. Eastern Kingbird?  Is the yellow on the flanks just a reflection of the leaves?

4. Song Sparrow?

1. Probably Willow, but the Flycatchers are hard to ID. Alder is basically identical, so need voice to be sure.
2. Could be the same.
3. Yes, I think Eastern Kingbird.
4. Yes, I think Song Sparrow.

Thanks Thomas.  I was back at the park again today, and there were more Flycatchers and they sounded more like Willow than Alder.
