The bird appeared to have checked out the feeder, but was a little shy and flew away. Please help I.D.

Hope this will help solve the mystery, fussy image of the bird. Thanks in advance.

The young RWBB does have that buff strip over the eye and the other markings look right. I'm thinking Dellrose is right. Hard to be sure, tho.
