These four flycatchers were part of a digital composite (above right) that completed the unfinished plate Peterson was working on when he died (above left). Other figures on the plate were taken from other Peterson guides. These four birds remain the only birds by any artist other than Peterson himself to appear in a Peterson bird guide.
