USA - Nevada, Mt Charleston, Flycatchers, Aug 14, 2020 (1 Viewer)

Hi - I bird a spring up on Mt Charleston and this was an extremely birdy day. Flycatchers are very difficult for me to identify and it is possible, during the 3 hours I was there, that these are different birds. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

2-4 are dusky, Short primary projection, long tail, large bill, all subjective and hard to see unfortunately. Not sure about #1
 
Perhaps a co-incidence, but there’s a “break” in the greater covert bar and a widening at the rear of the eye-ring on all 4 images....the same bird involved throughout?

Cheers
