Spotted
Rüch's Blue Flycatcher is an attractive species with a predominantly deep blue plumage, often with a paler belly. It is a shy inhabitant of dense forests.
Where to spot
Given it's a 'blue flycatcher', it would likely inhabit forests in Southeast Asia. (Specific distribution unknown without a standard common name for this scientific name).
How to spot
Look for its blue coloration. Many blue flycatchers perch upright and sally for insects. Listen for soft, whistled calls.
When to spot
Generally, blue flycatchers are resident, active year-round during daylight hours, with increased vocalization during breeding season.
This specific scientific name (Cyornis ruckii) is quite rare in modern ornithology and might be a typo or an extremely obscure or archaic name. Assuming a 'blue flycatcher' in the Cyornis genus.
