About These Birds
Ash-breasted Tit-tyrant
The Ash-breasted Tit-tyrant is an Endangered small flycatcher restricted to high-altitude Polylepis forests in the Andes of Peru and Bolivia. Weighing under 10g with a wingspan near 12.7cm, it depends heavily on threatened Polylepis woodland. Habitat destruction has severely reduced its population.
Bay-ringed Tyrannulet
