They are pretty darn cute.  As adults they will be small yellow-ish birds of the forests and streams. They are insect eaters. Pacific-slope Flycatchers are only found along the Pacific coast states. I often hear them in our forest. You can hear their call at this link: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Pacific-slope_Flycatcher/sounds

Here is a photo of an adult, taken by Craig Tooley. The bird has an insect in his mouth. He was probably about to bring it to chicks in a nest.

Thanks to Nancy and Craig for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
