Saffron-crested Tyrant-manakin in Suriname
and the
call
recorded by Foek
Chin Joe on the same place in february 2004). They have a yellow-orange
patch on their heads (just visible), red eyes and a yellow belly
(that's easy). Best chance to meet them is in the savannas. They
have a nice display, Otte Ottema writes: "The bird was found
sitting on a horizontal branch about 5 m above the ground and was
constantly jumping about 20 cm high using its wings, while
singing each time it jumped. It was fanning its yellow-orange
crest in between two jumps, but not every time."
Each small square indicates the observation of at least one
(group) of these birds, the medium ones at least 4 observations
on different days and the largest ones 10 or more. The color of
each square indicates: blue for coastal area, yellow for savanna
and red for rainforest.
