    Eastern Wood Pewee? Lower Hudson Valley, NY

    Yes. And the habitat is more common for a willow than an alder. I will just call it a flycatcher and leave it at that. I think anything more specific would be false precision.

    Eastern Wood Pewee? Lower Hudson Valley, NY

    Thanks for the link. I'm leaning toward an Alder flycatcher based on the shape of the head and the two-toned beak. But that's just a guess. For now I'll just call it a flycatcher.

    Eastern Wood Pewee? Lower Hudson Valley, NY

    According to my Golden Guide, the lack of an eye ring distinguishes the Pewee from the Willow/Alder flycather. I've attached the first photo, cropped, but at the original resolution. I think I can see an eye ring, which would confirm your ID. Thank you, Birdmeister.

    Eastern Wood Pewee? Lower Hudson Valley, NY

    The same bird is in all 3 photos. They were taken in a grassy field in Sleepy Hollow, NY. Am I correct in calling it an Eastern Wood Pewee? Thank you for your expertise.
