The Cinnamon Flycatcher is a distinctive medium-sized flycatcher, aptly named for its rich cinnamon-rufous plumage. It is a striking bird of the montane cloud forests.
Where to spot
Widespread in the highlands of Central and South America, from southern Mexico to northern Argentina, found in humid montane and cloud forests.
How to spot
Identify it by its unmistakable cinnamon-rufous plumage. It often perches on exposed branches or wires, sallying out to catch insects in flight. Its strong, sharp calls are also a good clue to its presence.
When to spot
Resident year-round in its montane habitat. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon, often seen foraging along forest edges.
