Flycatcher ID help please
This fellow was captured at Anahuac NWR, Texas, the third week of April. Based on the long primary extension, and the pale lores, I've tentatively assumed Acadian Flycatcher. But I haven't ruled out an Eastern Wood-Pewee. eBird suggests that either bird could have been there at that time, though neither in great abundance. Other Empidonax seem unlikely. Unfortunately, I don't remember hearing him sing, or noticing any tail-wagging. This was taken on a foggy morning, and I've had to do some Levels adjustments to bring him out, so I can't be sure that the colors are 100% accurate. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
