Flycatchers? Wisconsin (1 Viewer)

[birdman000]

Hello again,

Please help with these 2 flycatchers. I heard and saw Eastern Wood-pewees near where I saw these but I think they are different. Maybe an Eastern Phoebe?

Thanks for looking.

I believe they are all Eastern Wood-pewees. None of them show the large-headed appearance of Eastern Phoebes; they are rather dark below, have no eye-ring, and have long primary projections.

I get the feeling that the first bird is an Eastern Phoebe and the second is an Eastern Wood-Pewee.

They all look like Eastern Wood-Pewees to me - note the pale wing bars, orange base of bill, and "vested" appearance.

There all definitely Eastern Wood-Pewees.
