I photographed this bird in Oaks’ Bottom in Portland Oregon. This is a long slender bird and is related to flycatchers. It is between the size of a sparrow and a robin. It was in the field at oaks bottom catching bugs. I was able to get fairly close and get some nice pictures and videos. Here is a great web site to help identify birds. https://www.allaboutbirds.org
