About These Birds
Acre Tody-tyrant
The Acre Tody-tyrant is a near-threatened flycatcher weighing just 9g from Amazonian forests of Brazil and Bolivia. It is secretive and rarely observed in its dense forest undergrowth habitat.
Black-capped Pygmy-tyrant
The Black-capped Pygmy-tyrant is one of the world's smallest passerines, a tiny tyrant flycatcher of Central and South American humid forests, with a conspicuous black cap, olive-green upperparts, and yellowish underparts. It inhabits the mid-story and canopy of lowland and foothill tropical forests from Costa Rica to Bolivia and Brazil. It feeds on tiny insects, gleaning them from fine foliage.
