Will appreciate any help to ID this bird. My guess is Eastern Wood-Peewee but the wing bars seem too wide. The wing bars had a buffy tone. The belly, chest and throat were a 'clean' white. The upper mandible is dark gray, lower mandible is yellowish at base and dark at tip. Photo was taken on Oct 2, 2009 in central Ohio. The bird was catching bugs in a rainstorm. Thank you.

Bob, I think you are correct with the ID. Buffy tone in wing-bars suggests this is a juv. bird.
