[cobirds] Possible Vermilion Flycatcher, Lincoln County

I hit eastern El Paso County and western Lincoln County today, for the most part nothing especially exciting but I found a flycatcher feeding young in Lincoln County that has me a bit stumped for ID.  See https://flic.kr/p/2m2p4bX

White breast and throat cancel the more likely Say's Phoebe; the pinkish-yellow wash on the vent suggest female Vermilion, but that would be unusual in SE CO and the breast is not streaked.  Am I just overexcited and looking at a fairly easterly Willow?
