Vermilion Flycatcher

Among red-colored birds, the Vermilion Flycatcher is a standout. Tyrannidae is the family of tyrant flycatchers, which includes this little bird. The rich vermillion-red hue on the males' breast, belly, and the crest is referred to by the first half of their name, vermilion. The second half of its name, on the other hand, references its habit of catching flies in mid-flight. Male vermilion flycatchers have brown tails and wing feathers in addition to their red coloration.

The majority of Vermilion Flycatchers are 5.1 to 5.5 inches in length and weigh less than 0.5 ounces. They can be found in regions of the southern United States, Mexico, and South America. Their diet also includes a variety of grains in addition to insects. When male Vermilion Flycatchers want to attract females, they often provide them with presents, such as a butterfly or other brightly colored insect.
