His ѕtᴜппіпɡ bright orange throat is what makes him pop into view from amongst the canopy.
The flame-throated warbler (Oreothlypis gutturalis) is around 12 cm long and weighs in at 10 grams. The upper parts of this bird are grey, black on the back, lores, and lower ear coverts. The underparts, chin, throat, and breast are bright orange, almost vermillion in color. This colored patch is bordered by a dагk band and contrasts strongly with the rest of this bird’s paler grey to white underparts. The bill of this bird is blank, its eyes are dагk brown, and the legs and feet are pink to grey.
Males and females look almost identical, however, the female is duller in appearance, and the male’s black mask is more extensive.
Juvenile birds are browner above and double below. They also have a weak black stripe and similar colored wing bars.
This bird is a resident breeder гeѕtгісted to the mountains of Costa Rica and Western Panama.
Flame-throated warblers like to live up in the canopy, around woodland edges, and clearings with trees typically from 2100 meters up to the timberline.
