10,000 Birds

Indeed it is listed as Near Threatened, which is a pity as it is kind of a soulmate of mine (eBird: “Not as social as Reed and Pallas’s Buntings and doesn’t expose itself as often; usually solitary”).

Field Guide to North American Flycatchers: Empidonax and Pewees–A Field Guide Review

10,000 Birds
