Species: Willow Flycatcher
Most recent capture date: 9/03/2023
Age: less than six months old

Notes: Every fall we get a flood of migrating Empidonax flycatchers, of which >95% are Western Flycatchers. A few, however, are Willow Flycatchers, distinguished by subtle traits such as lacking a prominent pale eyering. Willow Flycatchers are State Endangered, so we’re especially happy to see each one.
