Spotted
The Northern Beardless-Tyrannulet is a tiny and rather nondescript flycatcher, known for its lack of a distinct crest, which gives it its 'beardless' name. It is common in dry to semi-humid open woodlands and scrub.
Where to spot
Widespread from the southwestern United States through Mexico and Central America to northwestern South America, preferring drier, open woodlands and scrub.
How to spot
Listen for its characteristic whistled song. Look for its small size and lack of a prominent crest. It often perches quietly on exposed branches, making short, quick sallies for insects.
When to spot
Resident year-round in most of its range, though some northern populations may be migratory. Most vocal and active during the breeding season and in the mornings.

Its loud, whistled song, often a rapid series of 'wee-chip-chip-chip' notes, is much more distinctive than its appearance and is a key identification feature.
