Streak-necked Flycatcher hover-gleans among foliage and executes sallies for flying insects or berries, often returning to cover swiftly.
Habitat
The streak-necked Flycatcher predominantly resides in the humid upper tropical and lower temperate montane forests, including secondary growths. It is also sometimes found in forest borders and adjacent clearings that contain isolated fruit-bearing trees. This species typically inhabits regions characterized by a moist, mountainous woodland environment.
