Passerine in Rhode Island, United States (1 Viewer)

[RCSparrow]

I was looking at observations in iNaturalist and found one from Rhode Island in July 2020 that has stumped me. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Tyrant Flycatchers (Family Tyrannidae)

Tyrant Flycatchers from Middletown, RI, USA on July 7, 2020 at 06:02 PM by Tyler. flitting about in the long grass, probably catching insects

"ChickenParmesan24"'s suggestion is a good one. Maybe Least Flycatcher - open habitat, grey (not greenish) back, strong double wing bars.

I agree least flycatcher although I interpret (and latch on to) what I see as a brownish back
