Pine Flycatcher

The pine flycatcher is 13 to 14.5 cm (5.1 to 5.7 in) long and weighs about 11.5 g (0.41 oz). The sexes are alike. Adults of the nominate subspecies E. a. affinis have pale grayish lores and a whitish tear-shaped eye-ring that becomes a point behind the eye on an otherwise olive to grayish olive head. Their upperparts are also olive to grayish olive. Their tail is dusky. Their wings are mostly dusky, with whitish to buff tips on the coverts that show as two wing bars. The wing's secondaries and tertials have pale yellow edges. Voice: In northern and central Mexico the pine flycatcher's song is "2–4 phrases, prrp, p-wiet, chit p-p-p-reer or p-rip, p-rip, p'rr-ree". There it also has a fast "dri-i-irr" alarm trill and a "chu-wik" call. In Chiapas its song is "chri-k whee-u', chik-wheer or cheenk, cheenk, t-weeree". The species also makes "whip, pwip or whiup" calls.
