I'm not certain but think this is an Eastern Wood-Pewee

As the title says, I'm not certain but think this is an Eastern Wood-Pewee. I am not good at identifying all the very similar flycatchers. Feel free to jump in and correct me if I am wrong.

I found these images in a folder along with others that I had forgotten about and never published. Taken in August of 2008.

Beautiful shots Harvey.....I believe you're correct on the ID of this one.

I'm not the best at IDs either Harv but those are nice shots.

very nice shots Harv

Hey, I wish I could open an old folder and find shots like this. Top notch as usual, the green BG really adds to the photos.

What a beauty Harv! You keep setting the bar higher.

I love the green background...I can't wait until spring. Thanks for the teaser.

nice ones, Harvey

Nice shots Harvey. Wish I even had old folders with shots like this

Beautiful shots Harvey but this is an Eastern Phoebe. You can tell it's a juvenile by the yellow gape and the wingbars. My guess is it was shot late summer or early fall.

bummer I should have read where you said it was taken in August

Lovely shots, Harvey. The green background is perfect for this bird. Such a cute little thing.

I believe that Chubri777 is correct. It's easy to confuse. but the wood pewee has a lighter lower mandible while the Eastern Phoebe has a solid black bill. Your photo confirms Phoebe...might be a juvenile.
