Thanks.  Bird continues. Captued a few audio recordings around 1pm today as
it vocalized a bit from the same area while confronting an eastern wood
pewee.

A yellow billed cuckoo was also flying around the same area and calling.

Best,

For anyone venturing out to chase the (probable?) Western Wood-Pewee found
by Mark Otnes at Buffalo River State Park, these directions may be
helpful.  From the main parking lot, go to the right of the swimming area
on the cement walking trail.  It will turn to gravel and bring you to a
bridge.  Just after crossing the bridge, the trail splits, take the left
trail and stay on this trail until you cross a small clearing and come to
an area I would describe as oak savannah (the next wooded section after the
clearing).  About half way through this area, there is a finger of woods
that extends to your right (south).  The bird is being seen/heard in this
area.  Though most birders are having no trouble finding this bird by
voice, we had to wait over two hrs to hear multiple vocalizations and
confirm ID, albeit we arrived there at a bad time of day (around 3:00).
There are multiple eastern pewees in this area also.  Good luck.
