Hi Nathan, Sounds very close to Alder Flycatcher to me. I've recorded a handful of Alder Flycatchers in the past few nights, usually repeating their call constantly as they fly over, or repeat their "pip" calls leading up to the "re-eeer" call.

It sounds too exaggerated to me for Gray-cheeked Thrush, and reminds me of Alder Flycatcher. Would really appreciate hearing other opinions. The sound should be attached.
