What the Orange-banded Flycatcher sounds like



ID tip
The orange-banded flycatcher is 12.5 to 13 cm (4.9 to 5.1 in) long; two males weighed 9.5 and 10 g (0.34 and 0.35 oz). The sexes are very similar. Adult males have a very dark brownish olive crown with a partly hidden yellow, orange, or rufous patch in the middle. Both sexes have a thin very pale yellow eye-ring on an otherwise dark brownish olive face. Their back and rump are dark brownish olive. Their wings are dusky with thin buffy or whitish edges on the flight feathers and wide cinnamon, ochraceous, or buffy tips on the wing coverts; the latter show as two wing bars. Their tail is dusky. Voice: The orange-banded flycatcher's dawn song is "a simple and monotonous series of 'tsin' notes" and its call "a sharp and arresting 'peeyk' given repeatedly as it forages".
