Description

The rufous flycatcher (Myiarchus semirufus) is a bird species in the family Tyrannidae. It is endemic to Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical dry shrubland. It was formerly classified as a species of least concern by the IUCN. But new research has shown it to be much rarer than it was believed. Consequently, it is uplisted to endangered in 2008.

Feeding Habits
Rufous Flycatcher predominantly eats insects, including beetles, wasps, and caterpillars. It forages by sallying from perches to snatch prey mid-air or from foliage. Rufous Flycatcher has specialized hunting skills, often using 'hawking' techniques, and may exhibit a preference for certain insect types depending on availability.
Habitat
The habitat of rufous Flycatcher encompasses tropical and subtropical regions where thorny deserts, xerophytic steppes, and mesquite savannas predominate. These areas often contain open thorn-woodlands with trees such as mesquite and acacia, which are typically accompanied by a sparse understory of grasses and herbs. Rufous Flycatcher can also be found in agricultural areas and occasionally in isolated groves within extensive desert landscapes.
