I think Russ Morgan’s Tennessee may be an Orange-crowned. Tennessee’s have
a pronounced supercilium as I remember and this bird has no supercilium but
a broken eye-ring like an Orange-crowned? What do others think?
Hapy birding!

gray rump contrasting with red upper tail coverts , “bright red wings and
tail — and clean flanks — rule out Sooty” : underside of this bird and
flanks are white white white, with underside streaking black, much darker
black than any of the brown/red/gray of upperside bird : with black on
white underside, and smooth brownish upperside, and eyering, and small
bill, Courtney on first poor views through leaves wondered if with could be
Ovenbird?! (both OVEN and Slate-colored Fox new birds for Courtney) ,
coloring of upperside vs underside and also belly black streaking of this
bird (except the wing/tail red) such a poss perfect match for OVEN. —
Courtney has lots of experience in central Oregon of Thick-billed Fox, but
this is my first ever seen close Slate-colored and it took me awhile to ID
it! "
