Observation details

Silent bird. After reviewing my photos Least seems the best fit. Distinct eye-ring, widest at the rear. Rounded crown. Small, compact, and relatively large headed. Short tail, slightly notched, narrower at base. Strong contrasting white and black wings. Hint of yellow tinge to underparts. Primary projection seems moderate. Short medium-width bill. Black tip to lower mandible eliminates Yellow-bellied. Location was approximately lat 46.686742 long -116.969590. - Note: Although I still feel like the bird is good for a Least there is too much uncertainty among expert birders to be confirmed. The other bird I thought was a possible Gray Flycatcher due to tail movement (seemed to be a slow upward and then flick down) but only got a brief look and no photo.
