Feeding Habits
Grey-hooded Flycatcher primarily consumes insects and fruit. It forages in forest understorey, often perching and bobbing its head, with distinctive wing-flicking behavior. It captures most prey through hover-gleaning, but will also chase flying insects.
Habitat
Grey-hooded Flycatcher typically inhabits the lower vegetative strata of humid forests, often found in secondary woodlands and forest edges as well. It thrives in areas characterized by high moisture levels that are essential for the ecosystems where grey-hooded Flycatcher resides. These birds are generally associated with broader tropical regions where such environmental conditions are prevalent.
