The Sulphury Flycatcher is a vibrant and relatively large tyrant flycatcher of the Amazon Basin and northern South America. It is recognized by its bright yellow-green plumage.
Where to spot
Found across the Amazon Basin, the Guianas, and parts of Venezuela and Colombia. Prefers open wetlands, swamps, palm groves, and riparian areas, often near standing water.
How to spot
Look for its striking bright yellow-green plumage, particularly on its underparts, and an olive back. It has a dusky mask and a heavy black bill. Its distinctive, somewhat harsh calls are also good identifiers.
When to spot
Resident year-round throughout its range. Most active during the morning and late afternoon.
