Yellow Tyrannulet

Capsiempis flaveola

The Yellow Tyrannulet is a small, insect-eating bird found in the forests and woodlands of South America. This species is known for its bright yellow plumage on the underside and olive-green upperparts. It has a distinctive white eye-ring and a short, slightly hooked bill. Yellow Tyrannulets are often observed foraging for insects in the mid to upper canopy of trees, where they use their agile flight to catch prey. They are known for their high-pitched, repetitive calls. This species is generally considered to be of least concern in terms of conservation status.
