Observation details

Large flycatcher (think Song Sparrow sized) perched briefly on a runway light. Upright posture. Greyish brown with similarity colored "vest" and a light grey chin. To me, it looked dark grey until I pointed my camera at it. No noticeable wing bars. No eye ring. Hard to tell if the beak was all orange with a black tip or if just the lower mandible was orange. Slight peak to the head shape. Terrible pictures taken through a window. It flew off right as I walked out a door for a better view. Likely a Western-wood peewee? Edit: Originally reported as Empidonax sp. I think I've narrowed it down to Olive-sided Flycatcher.
