The Plain-winged Tyrannulet is a small, rather inconspicuous flycatcher endemic to Venezuela. It typically inhabits semi-open areas with scattered trees and shrubs.
Where to spot
Endemic to northern Venezuela, primarily found in arid to semi-arid regions with thorny scrub, deciduous woodland, and gallery forest edges.
How to spot
Look for it perched upright, often high in trees or shrubs. Its plumage is generally olive-grey above with a pale belly, and it lacks distinct wing bars or tail patterns, hence 'plain-winged.' Listen for its simple, repetitive calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round in its restricted range. Best observed during cooler parts of the day, morning and late afternoon.
