Genus Contopus

 

Cuban Pewee - Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, and heavily degraded former forest.

 

Tropical Pewee - This pewee is found at the edges of forests and cultivated areas with tall trees. The nest is a small open saucer of fibre and grasses, lined with grass and decorated with lichen on its exterior. It is placed in a tree fork or on a branch. The female builds the nest and incubates the typical clutch of two creamy-white eggs, which are marked with red-brown spots at the larger end, for 15-16 days to hatching.

Olive-sided flycatcher - Adults are dark olive on the face, upperparts and flanks. They have light underparts, a large dark bill and a short tail.

 

Smoke-coloured Pewee - It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru, and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, and heavily degraded former forest.

 

Hispaniolan Pewee - The Hispaniolan Pewee is a species of bird in the Tyrannidae family. It is found on the island of Hispaniola in the Caribbean.

 

Lesser antillean pewee - It is found in Dominica, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Puerto Rico, and Saint Lucia with records from Saint Kitts. Birds on Puerto Rico are sometimes considered to be a separate species as are those on Saint Lucia .

 

Dark Pewee - This large, dark pewee is found between 1250 m and 2150 m altitude in wet mountain forests, especially at the edges and in clearings, and in adjacent semi-open areas with tall trees. The nest is a broad, thick-walled saucer of mosses and lichens, lined with plant fibres. It is placed 5-18 m high across a branch. The eggs are undescribed, but the female builds the nest, lays only two eggs and incubates the eggs for 15-16 days before they hatch.

 

Blackish Pewee - Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montanes.

 

Ochraceous Pewee - The Ochraceous Pewee is a species of bird in the Tyrannidae family. It is found in Costa Rica, Mexico, and Panama. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montanes.

 

Jamaican Pewee - The Jamaican Pewee is a species of bird in the Tyrannidae family. It is endemic to Jamaica. It was formerly regarded as a subspecies of the Greater Antillean Pewee .

 

Coues' Flycatcher - Adults are dark olive on the face, upperparts and flanks. They have dull gray underparts, a large dark bill and a short tail. Birds often show a narrow, pointed crest.

Western wood-pewee - Their breeding habitat is open wooded areas in western North America. These birds migrate to South America at the end of summer. The female lays two or three eggs in an open cup nest on a horizontal tree branch or within a tree cavity; California black oak forests are examples of suitable nesting habitat for this species of bird. Both parents feed the young.

Eastern Wood-Pewee - Adults are grey-olive on the upperparts with light underparts, washed with olive on the breast. They have two wing bars, and the primary remiges are long, giving the wingtip a slim and very pointed appearance. The upper part of the bill is dark, the lower part is yellowish. The songs are basically a mournful whistled pee-a'wee given in a series, which gave this bird its name, and a "we-aww" with a rising note at the end.
