I believe this is a Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, but am not sure due to the bad pictures. Any help?

Certainly looks like one to me too.

Tail is very dark...

Tail is very dark...

Only because it is shaded. Blowing up the second photo shows a tail pattern good for Blue-gray Gnatcatcher.

Can go with that...rest of it doesn't match other spp. anyway.

But note the tail is arched, so the white edge we see closest is actually on the top of the tail, while the further white edge is on the underside of the tail. So the tail is still dark looking with white edges.
