The first 'tchep' notes were given in responce to playback of its call. Towards the end of the recording are two such calls. Those were the ones I first heard at 7:40 and it came in repeatedly to playback of that call and also to pishing.
Détails de l'observation
First record for Ecuador! The bird was first found near the first pond. I heard it calling and didn't recognize the sound. When I saw it, I saw that it was a vireo but it looked very dull. A Red-eyed had been in this bush a couple of weeks before but I could soon see that it wasn't that and it had no yellow anywhere and ho strong head pattern, just an obvious supercilium. It also sub-sang a bit in-between the calls. I went around and played the call back and it immediately came in and hoped about over-head allowing for pictures. It responded with a soft 'tchep' call, see attached recording. This repeated several times between 7:45 and 8:20 when the bird was seen flying out (south) of the BG and was not seen by me later. All plain grey-brown above with darker brown crown and off-white below with random buffier patches on the side of the breast. Faint eye-line and whitish supercilium, otherwise lacked obvious fieldmarks, except for the three different call-types. The call it responded to was XC333892 and it came several times. I also played the song a few times without response. The song I was playing was XC349068 which is from Baja California and thus of the wetsern subspecies, suggesting that the bird was actually (and most likely) of the eastern subspecies.
