Rusty-margined flycatcher        Images © Mark A. Chappell

Rusty-margined flycatchers are one several 'kiskadee-like' species that share yellow bellies and black-and-white facial masks (others include the great and and lesser kiskadee, boat-billed flycatcher, and social flycatcher). Rusty-margined flycatchers look a lot like social flycatchers, but have dark eyes, black instead of dark gray masks, and tend to live close to water.   This one was photographed in Soberania National Park near Gamboa, Panama.
