CLOSED: Need help id'g this birdy

Initially thought mocking bird but seems to small and the beak seems to small also. So I think it's a Kinglet but not sure what kind. Need confirmation.

Thanks

Pretty sure it's an Eastern Phoebe

Claypa I think you are right I just did a search and it looks just like it. Man was I way off.

Thanks

Yep, Eastern Phoebe. Unusual for it to be wintering so far north, it'll have difficulty surviving as I guess there can't be too many flies around now?

I don't remember seeing them in winter in that area, but the Cornell site shows them there year round, farther north than the Sibley guide:
