Identification

ALIMENTÉ PAR MERLIN

A medium-sized bird of lowland and foothill forest interior. Black upperparts and chest, white belly, grayish bill, fairly long tail and the hint of a bushy crest. Often found in pairs, or mixed flocks in the understory or midstory where it is difficult to see. Similar to male Satin and Leaden Flycatchers, but Hooded Monarch is found in forest interior rather than more open habitats, and the white underparts extend up the sides of the chest. Song, a high-pitch quavering whistle.
