Yellow-bellied Flycatcher
The Yellow-bellied Flycatcher is a very unsuspicious bird, allowing persons to approach within a short distance. The Yellow-bellied Flycatcher is brownish olive above and yellowish below with whitish eye rings and wing bars. The Yellow-bellied Flycatcher is found in coniferous forests, alder thickets and high mountain bogs. Most Yellow-bellied Flycatcher nest sites are associated with standing water, sphagnum moss, conifers (spruce or hemlock), and the presence of high bush blueberries, alder, rhododendron or other shrubs. The Yellow-bellied Flycatcher nests on the ground, preferably in beds of sphagnum moss where three to five white eggs, sparsely flecked with brown, hatch by late spring. The Yellow-bellied Flycatcher feeds mainly on insects and spiders & winters in Central and South America.
