A Flycatcher in Regina, SK. Thoughts on this being an Alder Flycatcher? © SB |
As Flycatchers are very difficult to tell apart unless you know the species well, get a close look, and hear them sing, I will leave this bird ID at that. A Flycatcher. Maybe Willow, although in our part of Saskatchewan, perhaps more likely to be an Alder Flycatcher. Whatever it was, I appreciated the visit and chance to photograph this little backyard bird.

What is this? A Flycatcher — perhaps an Alder Flycatcher (Moucherolle des aulnes). Or if not, a Willow Flycatcher (Moucherolle des saules.)
Location: Backyard, Regina, Saskatchewan
