This is an adult Dark-sided Flycatcher from the more grey upperparts, dirty grey underparts with some streaking and particularly the dark malar stripe under the chin.

Dear Geoff,

Thanks for pointing it out.  We may be misled by its 'yellow base on lower bill'.  However, we are also not very sure about 'eyerings are more even in thickness'.

Attached an enlarged photo for referecne.



By the way, the new book (Photographic Guide) helps a lot.  Thanks to those who contributed these lovely photos.
