My gut reaction is that they are all Eastern Wood Pewees. I don't really
see any eyerings, but they do have good wingbars.
I am very confident that the first 5 are, the last 3 are from an angle
that doesn't emphasize the squared head as well, but they stiil look
like pewees to me.
Good birding,

Were none of them vocalizing? The pewee song is easily identifiable.
