Yellow-bellied Flycatcher
Empidonax flaviventri
(L 5.5" WS 8" WT 0.4 oz)
Rancho Naturalista Baja

Have one of the shortest stays
of any Neotropical migrant,
often less than 70 days.
Empidonax is Greek for gnat or
mosquito king; flaviventri in
Latin means
golden-yellow belly.
I like the focus and
the eye is seen.
