The only pewee I have seen with that large of a bill is a Greater Pewee that I photographed in McAllen, Texas and this bird reminded me of that one but it seemed very unlikely.

-- SeEtta, the photos in your blog document (in my mind) very nicely an Eastern Wood-Pewee. Very long wings, dull wing-bars, all yellow mandible, and uniform pale underparts. The bill is a pewee bill, too large for any empid, I believe. I have a photo of one from Missouri on-line here: http://www.pbase.com/quetzal/image/145449093.
