Hello Matt. I was wondering how you were able to tell The Yellow-bellied Flycatcher 
from a immature Acadian Flycatcher.
 What was this decision based on. Maybe I am wrong but I have always
 been told that unless it is in the hand, or 
it was singing, it is almost impossible to tell. I have studied skins in the 
Delaware Natural History Museum many years ago and wasn't able to tell them
apart with out getting more into detail in the hand.

I was just wondering. I hope to here from you.
