Thanks for the correction Dominik! I'm trying to ID as much as I can from a guide but nothing beats having some expertise!

Bill is too large for a Social, I see a little "hook" at the tip of the bill, this is characteristic for Great Kiskadee. Please, check as well.
You can believe me, I hate to challenge an ID of my master director ;-)...
