IdentificationThe Red-breasted Flycatcher is a delightful little bird with a perky manner and prominent eyes highlighted by neat white eye-rings. Adult males are of course easy to identify with their orangey-red bibs, much less extensive than the red breast of a Robin. However, females, juveniles and even some breeding males don't have this feature and have to be identified by their large-headed and long-winged shape, plain wings, characteristic white panels in the tail and, of course, that beady eye. HabitatBreeds in mature broad-leaved or mixed woodland. MigrationThese birds winter in Asia, mainly over much of Pakistan and India.
