The Tawny-crowned Pygmy-Tyrant is a tiny, active flycatcher named for its distinct tawny or rufous crown. It inhabits dry woodlands and scrub in South America.
Where to spot
Widespread across parts of South America, including Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Argentina. It prefers dry scrub, chaco, and open woodlands.
How to spot
Look for its tiny size and the diagnostic tawny crown. It often forages low in bushes, constantly flicking its tail. Its high-pitched, simple 'chip' notes are often the first sign of its presence.
When to spot
A year-round resident in its range. Most active during the daylight hours, especially in the morning.

Despite its diminutive size, this pygmy-tyrant is remarkably agile, performing intricate aerial maneuvers to catch minute insects amidst dense vegetation.
