Help?!? I'm sorry this pic is so bad, I only had my little camera and it was through a car window. He was pretty good sized. I was thinking maybe ash-throated just because of size but I could be totally off. Oh, and I was up in the Oquirrh mountains in Utah. Thanks!

Doesn't look nearly reddish enough on the tail for a Myiarchus flycatcher...my guess is Olive-Sided, as the tail looks a bit short for a Western Wood-Peewee.

My first impression was also Olive-sided, but I don't think it is possible to be positive with these photos. Any shots from the front?
