Nature Leaden Flycatcher

Leaden Flycatcher · 05:18 PM

A pair of Leaden Flycatchers building their nest. The nest is made from bits of bark and spiderweb.

This is the female.

The male

I have some video which I will try to upload.

Never heard of this species of flycatcher - thanks for sharing both the information and the really cute photos (and really cute video too!)
Our Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds also use spiderwebs in their nests, but use lichens rather than bark...
