About These Birds

Black-capped Flycatcher

The Black-capped Flycatcher is a small Empidonax flycatcher restricted to highland forests in Costa Rica and western Panama, distinguished from similar species by its dark cap and pale eye ring. It inhabits the canopy and edges of cloud forests above 2,000 meters. It feeds on insects, sallying from perches in typical flycatcher fashion.

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.
