This vividly marked bird, known for his loud personality
This loud, boldly marked flycatcher looks startlingly vivid with a contrasting yellow belly and black-masked head.
Having a hidden yellow crown stripe and a white eye stripe that is clearly visible.
The wings and tail are brown with typically prominent rufous fringes, whereas the upper parts are brown.
The black bill was short and thick.
Similar to the Boat-billed Flycatcher, the Boat-billed Flycatcher has a large black beak, an olive-brown back, and very little rufous on the tail and wings.
Males and females look very similar to one another.
The Lower Rio Grande Valley in southern Texas, northern Mexico, and Belize are the main locations where it can be found.
It is widespread in Brazil and Venezuela (particularly in the central and south-southeastern districts).
Along with Trinidad, the coast of Guyana, Uruguay, Paraguay, and central Argentina.
It was given to Bermuda in 1957, and Tobago got it about 1970.
They stalk prey on the wing like shrikes or flycatchers, sallying out from an exposed perch high in the tree to catch mice or other small animals.
Additionally, they occasionally consume fruit and dive for fish in shallow water (making them one of the few fish-eating passerines).
They are one of the most common birds in Latin American towns due to their opportunistic feeding habits.
