I am hoping for confirmations on what I believe these two birds are. The Kingbird I believe to be a Couch's and the Flycatcher I believe to be either Great Crested or Brown Crested but I am not sure which. I wish I had better pictures. Thanks for your help!

The Kingbird photo was taken in San Antonio and the Flycatcher was taken 1 hour south of San Antonio at Calliham.

Looks like a Western or Couch's Kingbird and a Ash-throated Flycatcher but wait for another opinion.
Thank you for your time !

Thanks for your help. Ash Throated seems correct for bird 2. I am still leaning towards Couch's Kingbird for bird 1 due to the notched tail.
