White-headed Marsh Tyrant (Arundinicola leucocephala), couple

            Countryside near DF-100 road - Brasilia, DF, Brazil.

Male on the left, female on the right side.

The male is entirely brown-black, apart from the relatively large white head and yellowish lower mandible.

The female has brown upperparts and wings and a black tail. Her underparts, sides of the head and forecrown are dull white.

This is a quiet species, but the call is a sharp sedik.
