Answer to Previous: The white eye ring on this bird eliminates Song Sparrow. Also note the thin gray beak. Rufous-winged Sparrows have chunkier beaks (which SIbley shows as being pink). This photo suggests Rufous-crowned Sparrow.

The eyrie tricked us once with a trogon from Central America, so I'll say Black-capped flycatcher. It has the BLACK CAP, The tear drop shaped eye ring, and the three faint white wingbars. If not, I'd say Dusky Flycatcher.
