We discovered a very messy nest outside our back door a week ago. At first we only saw the mother in the nest. Today, we caught a glimpse of her out of the nest for the first time. Based only on thumbing through my field guide, I am thinking this is a Cordilleran Flycatcher. But I would appreciate more experienced birders telling me if I am right or way off base! Thanks for your help.
Here are links to pictures, I know they are noisy, but it is a low light area, up under the eaves.
