Watched carefully for 10-15 minutes - looked more like a Gray Flycatcher than any other bird. It was singing from 3-4 song perches - remained in very small area the whole time. Song like Solitary but slower, however, less variable and with more downward-inflected notes. Head, wings, back gray except for faint white eye-ring, faint wing-bar. Underparts paler gray. Two other singing birds located nearby, one of which was watched for 5 min from 15-30' away - fantastic views
