Title: Flycatcher Experts
Post by: Canoncan on July 18, 2008, 10:37:59 AM

This shot was taken July 14th at Kortright Centre. Thought Olive Sided as it definitely had white rump patches but it's tail is longer than I thought. Then thought Peewee, size to me was larger than other Peewees I have seen. Call was more of a pip. Ideas???

Based on the wihite rump I would also say a Olive-Side but the tail length may just be thats its a bird from this years brood and not fully developed yet.

The more I look at others and compare to other shots I have looked at of Olive Sided Flycatchers, I will go with this. Thanks for your response.
