May 21, 2022 - Sooty Tyrannulet (Serpophaga nigricans)

These tyrant flycatchers are found in parts of southeastern South America, usually near water. They feed on insects, flitting from branches and rocks to catch them in the air, on the ground, or at the surface of the water. Breeding from October to December, pairs build tightly woven cup nests from roots, grasses, and feathers.
