Chapin's Flycatcher

Fraseria lendu

An extremely drab flycatcher that is gray-brown on the back and slightly paler below. With a good view, the short pale line above the bill is visible. A scarce and localized species of humid forest at middle elevations. Similar to African Dusky Flycatcher, but slightly larger and completely unstreaked on the underparts. Separated from other flycatchers by its plainness. The call is a short, spitting trill and the song is a long series of whistles, squeaks, and trills, given at high speed.
