The Golden-winged Tody-Flycatcher is a small, vibrant flycatcher adorned with golden-yellow wing edgings and a contrasting black head. It typically inhabits the lower and mid-story of humid tropical forests.
Where to spot
Widespread in the humid lowland forests of South America, particularly within the Amazon basin and along the Atlantic coast of Brazil.
How to spot
Identify it by its black head, golden wing edgings, and bright yellow underparts. It often perches in open spots in the forest understory or mid-story, making quick sallies for insects. Listen for its sharp, emphatic calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active during daylight hours, with increased foraging and vocalization in the mornings and late afternoons.

The 'golden-winged' aspect of its name refers to the distinctive bright yellow edges on its flight feathers, which are particularly noticeable in flight.
