Flycatcher ID (Minnesota, USA) (1 Viewer)

Well-known member
Good evening, today I had what I believe to be an Eastern Wood-Pewee hawking insects in my yard. It perched on a snag for several minutes and would make short flights to nab flying bugs. My location is about 30 min north of Minneapolis / St. Paul MN. I'm not very confident in my flycatcher ID so any help would be appreciated,

It exhibited white wing bars and did not appear to flick the tail at all. The second pic shows a dull orange lower bill which appears indicative of the eastern wood pewee.

Thanks
