The Small-billed Elaenia is a widespread migratory flycatcher, characterized by its relatively small bill compared to other elaenias. It is often seen during its non-breeding season in a variety of open habitats.
Where to spot
Breeds in southern South America (Argentina, Chile) and migrates north to northern South America and parts of Central America for the austral winter, found in various open woodlands and scrub.
How to spot
Look for its relatively small bill and duller plumage compared to other elaenias. It often forages actively, gleaning insects or making short sallies. Its calls are often distinct from resident elaenias.
When to spot
Highly seasonal; best observed during its non-breeding (austral winter) migration in northern South America and Central America, and during the austral summer in its southern breeding grounds.
