Social Flycatcher

Myiozetetes similis

Description:

The Social Flycatcher and Vermilion-crowned Flycatcher (Myiozetetes similis) are passerine birds from the Americas, a member of the large tyrant flycatcher family (Tyrannidae). It is sometimes split into two species, with the Social Flycatcher, Myiozetetes texensis, from Costa Rica northwards to Mexico, and the Vermilion-crowned Flycatcher, M. similis proper, from southwest Costa Rica across South America.

Habitat:

Social Flycatchers breed in plantations, pasture with some trees, and open woodland from northwestern Mexico south to northeastern Peru, southern Brazil and northwestern Argentina.

Notes:

not sure if this might not be a great Kiskadee also...
