Golden-crowned Flycatcher

Myiodynastes chrysocephalus

The Golden-crowned Flycatcher is a medium-sized passerine bird found in Central and South America. It is known for its distinctive golden crown and olive-green upperparts. This species is often found in the canopy of humid forests, where it feeds on insects by sallying out from a perch and returning to the same or a nearby perch. The song of the Golden-crowned Flycatcher is a series of melodious whistles. While not globally threatened, habitat loss due to deforestation poses a potential threat to this species.
