Spotted about a month ago in Pt Pelee Canada.
Can't find a mostly grey bird like this in my guide.
Appreciate any help.
(Sorry about the haziness in the middle of the bird - I think it was a branch in the way.)
Unfortunately, this is the only pic I have.

Great bird & great pic, because they're often difficult to photograph b/c they move around so much. They're only present in the winter where I live.
