Hmmm I think you've got something more exciting than a pewee here. I'd need to check what occurs in those parts but my first guess would be Euler's Flycatcher, or maybe Fuscous Flycatcher. Posted 2 years ago

  Thanks for the check! My question with Manuel is still pending, so trust you on this not being a pepwee. Posted 2 years ago

  Interesting candidates by the way, both seem to have this very spotty distribution over a gigantic total area. Posted 2 years ago

    Plus, Fuscous will probably end up being split up into several species! Posted 2 years ago

The Euler's flycatcher

Euler's flycatcher is a small passerine bird in the tyrant flycatcher family. It breeds in South America east of the Andes from Colombia and Venezuela south to Bolivia and Argentina, and on the islands of Trinidad and formerly also Grenada. This species is named for the Swiss ornithologist Carl Euler.
