I know that I should probably recognize this bird but it has me stumped. Kind of looked like Eastern Phoebe but the white wing bars threw me. I also thought about Blue-Gray Gnatcatcher but it doesnt have the white eye rings. So tell me the obvious....Thanks so much for your help.o

Thank you so much. It looked so gray to me and that threw me off. I knew I should know it. I had males everywhere and I knew some of the females on the feeders but this one was setting up in the willow tree and just looked different.

Thanks again.
