The yellow-browed tody-flycatcher (Todirostrum chrysocrotaphum) is a small, colorful bird. It belongs to the Tyrannidae family, also known as tyrant flycatchers. These birds are found mostly in the southern Amazon Basin in Brazil. You can also find them in parts of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia. Sometimes, they are even seen in Venezuela.
These flycatchers like to live in warm, wet places. Their natural habitats include tropical lowland forests and tropical swamps. They can also live in areas where forests have been changed by people.
Where Does It Live?
Home in the Amazon Basin
The yellow-browed tody-flycatcher mostly lives in the southern part of the Amazon Basin. To the east, its home is bordered by the great Amazon River. In the southeast, their range stretches all the way to Ilha de Marajo. This island is near where the Tocantins River meets the Atlantic Ocean. This eastern part of their home ends in the state of Maranhão, near the Baia de Sao Marcos bay.
In the western Amazon Basin, these birds live in the southern areas of the northwest basin. Their territory is limited by the Rio Negro. This river goes up to its smaller rivers in south-central Colombia.
