Hemitriccus mirandae

Miranda's Tody-Tyrant (Hemitriccus mirandae) is a small, insectivorous bird found in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil. It is characterized by its olive-green upperparts, yellow underparts, and a distinctive white eye-ring. This species is known for its high-pitched, repetitive calls and active foraging behavior, often seen flitting about in the dense understory. Miranda's Tody-Tyrant is primarily found in humid lowland forests and adjacent habitats, where it feeds on small insects and spiders. Due to habitat loss and fragmentation, this species is considered vulnerable to extinction, with conservation efforts focused on preserving its remaining forested habitats.
