Feeding Habits
Oustalet's Tyrannulet predominantly consumes arthropods, including various insects, spiders, and specifically caterpillars, flies, cockroaches, katydids, mantids, cicadas, and beetles. They forage in pairs or groups, often within mixed-species flocks, typically in forest canopies. Their behavior features active sallies and hover-gleaning from foliage, a unique quivering posture with raised tail.
Habitat
Oustalet's Tyrannulet is commonly found in humid tropical and upper tropical forests, typically preferring the interior regions of these environments. The species tends to inhabit areas with dense vegetation and is known to be more frequently encountered within the forest rather than at the edges.
