Topic: Yellow rumped Flycatcher


  
  Tyrant flycatcher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The tyrant flycatchers are a large family of passerine birds which occur throughout North and South America, but are mainly tropical in distribution.
They superficially resemble the Old World flycatchers, but are more robust with stronger bills.
They are members of suborder Tyranni (suboscines) and so do not have the sophisticated vocal capabilities of the songbirds.

 The Birds of North America Online: Yellow Warbler
In experimental presentation of Yellow Warbler mounts placed at nests of Yellow Warblers, females responded first and were more agitated towards female mounts, especially during their egg-laying period (Hobson and Sealy 1989b).
Yellow Warblers were initiators in 10 of 12 interactions with Parula Warbler (Parula americana), and in 3 of 7 interactions with Yellow-rumped (Myrtle) Warbler (Dendroica coronata coronata; Morse 1973).
Yellow Warbler may defend nonbreeding territories; observed aggression directed to 37 species, primarily (90 of 314 chases) to Magnolia Warblers (Greenberg and Salgado-Ortiz 1994).

 Willow Flycatcher (Empidonax traillii)
Willow Flycatchers forage by either aerially gleaning (capturing an insect from a substrate while hovering) from trees, shrubs, and herbaceous vegetation or hawking larger insects by waiting on exposed forage perches and capturing insects in flight (Ettinger and King 1980, Sanders and Flett 1989).
Willow Flycatchers have also been found in other riparian environments of various types and sizes ranging from small willow-surrounded lakes or ponds with a fringe of meadow or grassland to various willow-lined streams, grasslands, or boggy areas.

The fl and gray of the upper surface, the white wing bars and the yellow crown and rump are new, some of the old upper tail coverts and part of the feathers of the abdomen and crissum being retained in many cases, those of the back and elsewhere less often.
Field marks.--The male myrtle warbler in spring plumage is easily recognized at a considerable distance in its blue-gray, fl, and white plumage, offset by conspicuous patches of bright yellow on rump, sides, crown, and by the fl sides and cheeks.
Here fork-tailed flycatchers were also abundant, roosting by night in some orange trees behind the padre's house, by day spreading in small flocks over the savannas, where they perched in the low bushes, only a few feet above the ground, and darted down to snatch up the insects they descried.

LEAST FLYCATCHERS were well represented from the end of the reporting period with the earliest sightings coming from Magee Marsh Wildlife Area in Ottawa/Lucas Counties on April 28 (2 birds) and from Shawnee State Forest in Scioto County, also on the 28th (2 birds).
I had seen the mustardy yellow hat, golden wings on a grayish slately color bird but could not identify it in the brief moment I had seen it because I had never seen one before.
Yellow warblers have been singing from the thickets around the house and barns since Tuesday.

We spent the morning there, but it was a Sunday and there were quite a lot of people after 0800 or so.
We saw some birds here, including Yellow-rumped Flycatcher (not seen the rest of the trip), but it would have been better had it been a weekday with fewer people.
After our friends arrived, we got in the van and drove to Wolong Panda Reserve, where we were to stay for the next 6 nights.

 B-Mail(sm): ID-FRONTIERS for November 16-22, 2003
Tricolored/Yellow-rumped Flycatcher does have a white supercilium (and is a fairly early migrant which would fit with the date on Gambell) but again the bill is all wrong.
Points that match the description of the Oklahoma hybrid specimen, and that are wrong for Cassin's or Couch's, include the same tail feather edges and tail shape; the appearance of richer orange-yellow on the sides of the breast with paler yellow in the center; the distinctly paler yellow undertail coverts, and the pale head.
Furthermore, an adult flycatcher, when molting its tail, ought to start with rr1 (inner pair) and work outward (though perhaps replacing rr6 early on also—the latter is not true on this bird as rr6 are present).

 Venezuela birding 1994
There were caymans too, very nearby, and we suspected one having snapped a small bird just before we had time to identify it.
We wanted to be at the airport at about 14 h, and planned (thanks to the road map we got yesterday) to go there directly from La Petrolia, so we would not come back in Rubio.
Only afterwards, on the basis of the descriptions in the guide of Costa Rica, we were able to identify it as juvenal male Thick-billed Euphonia in its first breeding season.

 WORLDTWITCH - Qinling Shan, China Birding Trip Report, May 1998, by Mike Kilburn
After driving first along the main road, then down a track past a couple of small villages we picked up several Grey Bushchats in the cultivated land before reaching our target zone where the vegetation thickened and we stopped to begin birding in earnest at around 1900m.
We stopped for lunch at the end of the logging road and headed up a slope of moss-covered scree interspersed with stands of bamboo and large (probably primary) trees.
Scrambling amongst the bamboos overhanging what nominally passed for a path we found a number of Giant Panda droppings - the size of an oval tennis ball and consisting entirely of once-digested bamboo shoots and twigs.

 Yellow-rumped Cacique (Cacicus cela)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
These flies are paratisized by a mite which then move on to the nestlings, many of whom die from the infestation.
Another danger is the Piratic Flycatcher (Legatus leucophaius) which likes to take over a Yellow-rumped Cacique nest for its own and will often chase off a cacique sitting on eggs before throwing out the eggs and setting up its own nest.
This is known as "nest paratisism" as opposed to "brood paratisism" where birds will lay eggs in another species' nest and the egg will be hatched and cared for by the host species.

 Brock University - Na Haeo Working Paper 2001-1
A pair of Red-breasted Flycatchers was always present and moving around the Field Station noisily and rather rapidly and covering a fairly large range (50-metre radius).
With the exception of the Phylloscopus* (see Table 5.3), and the Asian Brown Flycatcher, all these birds are species that may breed in the Na Haeo vicinity, although perhaps not in the FIRS study area.
While this inventory lacks the detail that an ornithologist experienced in the birds of Thailand could bring to it, I believe that most of the more abundant species present in the FIRS study area were identified.

 Birding trip to Malaysia 1997
Later we drove to Tanjong Karang, an area of rice cultivation that had a large number of migrant waders in 1994, however the rice seemed to have reached a substantial height and Common Sandpipers (Actitis hypoleucos) were the only waders seen.
Bronzed and Lesser Racket-tailed Drongos (Dicrurus aeneus and remifer) Hill Blue Flycatcher (Cyornis banyumas) Crested Serpent-Eagle (Spilornis cheela) and Golden Babbler (Stachyris chrysea) are some of the species seen on this trip and Blue Nuthatch (Sitta azurea) were seen there 3 years before.
Conditions at TN were far from perfect, the sun was a red disc at midday due to the smog and incredibly humid (although drought conditions were prevalent...this had it's advantages as we didn't see a leech until it rained on our penultimate day).

All have yellow-orange wing-patches, an orange-yellow hindcrown, and violet and yellow on the tail.
As they do so, with their cocked long tails, and their shaking wings, and bright yellow eyes, they are quite a sight for our eyes.
Fork-tailed Flycatchers were rather obvious during that afternoon ride, as were a number of parrots of parakeets (of a few different species).

Broad-billed sandpipers, Limicola falcinellus, which had been seen in the morning would have been a close second but they had left for mud-flats as the tide dropped before we got there.
