    Finally decided this was maybe, possibly a Willow Flycatcher, though I saw photos and drawings in various guides that looked both similar and different, and that looked as much like some photos and drawings of Alder Flycatchers and even Eastern Wood-pewees. Re-identified as Eastern Wood Pewee

    This and a nuthatch landed on the same branch at the same time. The nuthatch stayed on the underside and with its belly all the way up until the flycatcher continued its flight to elsewhere.

    Could this bird be a Eastern Wood-Pewee or perhaps a Willow Flycatcher?? This bird has a few white bars on its wing. Thanks for your help
