Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Small, well-named flycatcher of lowland rivers. Plain tan plumage with cream-colored eyebrow and dark tail. Found exclusively along the edges of rivers and lakes, often encountered in pairs. Flits short distances along the river banks, hugging the shoreline. Similar to Little Ground-Tyrant, which has a lighter belly, white tail edges, and more upright posture unlike Drab Water Tyrant.
