The rounded head, weak eye ring, short primary extensions, and bill in between Hammond's short and Gray longer point to Dusky. Habitat of being down low near water also favors Dusky.
Détails de l'observation
Small empid with rounded head, eye-ring, and dark, short, stubby bill. Relatively short primary projection. Not 100% confident on the ID - other Flycatcher possibilities include Gray and Hammonds. Only got about 10 seconds of viewing the bird while it was in a bush between creek and seasonal gate, across the levee from fish ladder. I noticed brief, rapid tail movement at one point (seemed different than the slow, pronounced downward tail dipping behavior of Gray Flycatcher). Ken Pitts took photos (attached). Added note from Ken: Our confidence has increased as we ruled out Hammond's by the length of the primary extensions being significantly too short and the complete absence of any crown crest. The bill is too short to be a Gray and it was not acting like one. There have been no sightings of Grays on this side of the Cascades in this area.
