Took this pic yesterday of a pair of small flycatchers near Los Alamos, NM. The most common around here are Cordilleran's and Hammond's, but both have pale yellow bellies and these don't. Perhaps a Gray Flycatcher?
CLOSED: Another Empidonax
Very long-winged, too much for Gray Flycatcher, and I think too much so even for Hammond's; I'm thinking Western Wood Pewee.

I was down to the pewee and gray. I see what you mean about the wing length. Also the pics of the gray's I found showed a bit of white in front of the eye and above the bill. These don't have that. The gray would have been a lifer, but I'm inclined to agree with the Western Wood Pewee. Thanks for your help.
