White-faced Redstart

Myioborus albifacies

The White-faced Redstart, also known as the White-fronted Redstart, is a small passerine bird found in the highlands of Central America. It is characterized by its striking black and white plumage, with a bright red patch on its wings. This species is often found in montane cloud forests, where it forages for insects and spiders by hopping and flitting among the foliage. The White-faced Redstart is known for its melodious and varied song, which it uses to communicate and defend its territory. While not currently considered threatened, habitat loss and climate change may pose future challenges to this species.
