Subject: [Tweeters] Final fall flycatcher fling? ID help?

Hello Tweeters,

Both yesterday and last Monday, I was lucky enough to encounter lots of flycatchers in Lincoln Park (West Seattle), along with both a foraging warbler and a female goldfinch. I'd love some flycatcher ID help, and of course any confirmation (or not) of the others. ! I've tentatively ID'd a couple (Olive-Sided and Hammond's?), but not another.

The flycatchers are in this set on Flickr:

The fourth photo in that set is of two flycatchers arguing over a good perch (with an enthusiastic hummingbird spectator), and to me these look like different species; what's your take?

The goldfinch and warbler are in the regular photostream at

Thanks in advance!

Good birding to all,
Trileigh
