Brown Breasted Flycatcher, Kudawa, Sinharaja, Sri Lanka This was taken at Kudawa in the Sinharaja forest reserve complex. There were quite a few Asian brown flycatchers this time, however, when I went over the summer I don't recall seeing any, and if I did I would have photographed them!

The Brown-breasted flycatcher

The brown-breasted flycatcher or Layard's flycatcher is a small passerine bird in the flycatcher family Muscicapidae. The species breeds in north eastern India, central and Southern China and northern Burma and Thailand, and migrates to southern India and Sri Lanka. It forages for insects below the forest canopy, often close to the forest floor.
