I am known as a Social Flycatcher

I'm common in the neotropics

I'm brown and yellow with a white stripe on my head

I sit out in the open, you won't need your optics!

I just got back from trip to Costa Rica. Stay tuned for the next few days to see a little of what I saw.

Location: Hotel Bougainvillea, Heredia Province, Cantón de Santo Domingo, Costa Rica
