The Suiriri Flycatcher is a medium-sized, relatively plain-looking flycatcher known for its distinctive and often loud vocalizations. It prefers open woodlands, savannas, and shrublands.
Where to spot
Widespread across much of eastern and central South America, found in dry savannas, grasslands with scattered trees, and open woodlands.
How to spot
Listen for its diagnostic 'sui-ri-ri' call. Look for its relatively plain gray-brown plumage and upright posture on exposed perches. It often sallies for insects from an open perch.
When to spot
Resident year-round in most of its range. Most active during the day, with calls frequently heard in the morning and late afternoon.

The name 'Suiriri' is onomatopoeic, mimicking its common loud, whistled call, which often sounds like 'sui-ri-ri!'
