Observation Date / Time
Long, straight hill, speeds usually exceed 55. I realize the carcass is very smashed, however, it's bill is intact, and reveals it to be a flycatcher. Medium-sized flycatcher with a brown crown and plain brown wing. The only other medium-sized brown-crowned flycatcher in the area is Ash-throated, and it A) has not yet arrived in spring migration; and B) has prominent rufous primaries and tail, which this bird did not.
