Spotted
The Greenish Flatbill is a common and widespread species of flycatcher, characterized by its overall olive-green plumage and broad, flat bill. It inhabits the mid-story and canopy of various forest types.
Where to spot
Widespread throughout tropical Central and South America, found in humid and semi-humid forests, forest edges, and clearings.
How to spot
Identify it by its broad bill, olive-green plumage, and often yellowish belly. It frequently perches upright and sallies out for insects. Its loud, whistled calls are often heard before the bird is seen.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active during daylight hours, with increased foraging activity in the mornings and late afternoons.
Despite its somewhat drab appearance, its broad bill is a highly efficient tool for capturing a wide range of flying insects, from beetles to butterflies.
