Costa Rica has scores of flycatcher species. The area around Calle Matapalo is no exception. I have posted below photos of just a few of them.
These "triplet" Great Kiskadees were born in the area in March-April 2019. Every evening there parents who lead them to a tree branch where they would huddle together without moving a feather until dawn. They survived and as of October of 2020, two of them still hang around the yard.
Social Flycatcher
Tropical Kingbird
Piratic Flycatcher
Ochre-bellied Flycatcher
Wood-pewees. Both Western and Eastern are found in Costa Rica and I have identified both in the neighborhood but only by vocalization. Feel free to make your best guess on these two.
Yellow-bellied Elaenia
