Field Notes

Description:

A beatiful bird that I found near his nest (a hole on a tree) on a ravine. The "Long-Tailed Tyrant" flied sometimes to catch insects on the air and, after this, went to the nest (maybe to feed the youngs).

Habitat:

I found this specimen on a ravine, near a pasture, on a region of Cerrado.
