Was in Pt Pelee Canada 3 weeks ago and saw this guy. I'm not really sure what he is. It seems to match the description of the Great Crested Flycatcher in my guide,.. but I don't recall it being quite as big as the guide indicates (12-14cm).

Looks right to me. Yellow belly and what could be a puffed up head.

It certainly is -- size is often hard to judge when looking at birds in the field.
