Gray-Capped Flycatcher
Gray-Capped Flycatcher
The Tyrant Flycatchers are the largest family of birds with more than 400 member species. They can be found from the southern parts of South America to the northern reaches of North America but reach their greatest numbers in the tropics.
The Gray-capped Flycatcher, Myiozetetes granadensis, ranges from Honduras in Central America to Bolivia in South America. It is somewhat similar to the Social Flycatcher, M. similis, which lacks the distinctive gray head of this species. It often nests near water where it hunts in typical flycatcher fashion, sallying forth from a favored perch to catch insects.
This bird was seen near Bouquette in the Chiriqui highland region of Panama.
