El Paso county Kingbird identification ???

[kickback]

I saw this Kingbird  next to the El Paso county maintenance yard in Peyton and at first I thought it was just a Western kingbird (yawn) but that it looked a little different. Close examination of the picture makes me wonder if  it could be a tropical kingbird due to the  absence of grey on its chest near the neck and what seems like a lot of yellow in the feathers.

After I posted this I noticed the thin white line on tail feathers which I think would make this a Western. Several sharp eyed folks have commented on this as well.

Thanks
