About These Birds

Black-backed Water-tyrant

The Black-backed Water-tyrant is a small, attractive flycatcher of the riverbanks, lakeshores, and wetland margins of eastern Bolivia, southern Brazil, and northern Argentina. It has a white body with a bold black back and wings, and perches conspicuously on rocks and vegetation at the water's edge. It sallies out to catch insects over water.

Agile Tit-tyrant

The Agile Tit-tyrant is a small Andean flycatcher of the Tyrannidae family, weighing about 9 g with a wingspan near 12 cm. It is found in humid montane scrub and forest edges in South America, flitting nimbly through vegetation in search of small insects.
