I had a very active flycatcher this evening. I had the disadvantage of looking into the sun. It had a pale yellow breast, getting slightly darker down toward the tail. The tail was more then half the length of the body and was a light brown. The beak was a pale orange. I did not see if there was an eye ring. 
He was just slightly smaller then an Eastern Blue bird that occupied the same tall shrub. He always returned to the same place at the top of a tall dead bush after catching an insect. 
If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it.
