The Gambaga Flycatcher (Muscicapa gambagae) is a small passerine bird found in parts of West Africa. This flycatcher is known for its distinctive white throat and belly, contrasting with its dark brown upperparts. It is often found in woodland and savanna habitats, where it perches on exposed branches to catch insects in flight. The Gambaga Flycatcher is a migratory species, breeding in the savannas of West Africa and wintering in the forests of Central Africa. Its population is currently stable, but threats such as habitat loss and deforestation could impact its future numbers.
