I recently post photos of a flycatcher seen at Steigerwald NWR in Washougal, WA on Thursday asking for help on ID. I got a few email but the ID was different. All agreed that it was either a Dusky or Hammond's but some said Dusky and why, while others said Hammond's and why. Confused again. So I went to the interent and pulled in photos of the two birds from other people and compared them. The webpage below shows that comparison. I seem to be seeing that this bird is a Dusky rather than a Hammond's by comparison. Please let me know what you think.
