Pacific-slope Flycatcher
The Pacific-slope Flycatcher prefers moist deciduous woods or mixed slopes with tall trees, where it seeks an inconspicuous perch. This species is very similar to the Cordilleran Flycatcher and can best be separated by call, two-syllabled in Cordilleran and upslurred single note in Pacific-slope. Formerly conspecific with Cordilleran Flycatcher and called Western Flycatcher but it was determined that this previous group was actually two separate species.

The Pacific-slope Flycatcher nests in tree cavities & utilizes snags as well as dead branches of live trees. The Pacific-slope Flycatcher eats mainly flying insects. Occasionally they will eat berries and seeds. The Pacific-slope Flycatcher winters in Mexico.
