About These Birds
Acadian Flycatcher
The Acadian Flycatcher weighs about 13g and breeds in eastern North American forest ravines. It is identified by its sharp 'peet-sa' call and olive-green upperparts.
Belted Flycatcher
The Belted Flycatcher is a small, distinctive flycatcher endemic to pine-oak forests of the Pacific slope of Chiapas, Mexico and western Guatemala. It has a rufous breast band separating its white throat and belly, giving it the 'belted' appearance. It forages in forest understory and edges, catching insects with short aerial sallies.
