About the White-ringed flycatcher
The White-ringed flycatcher is a bird in the family Tyrannidae (order Passeriformes). Its conservation status on the IUCN Red List is “least concern”.
What does the White-ringed flycatcher sound like?
Birds produce sound with the syrinx, a vocal organ deep in the chest that can make two independent sounds at once. Songs tend to be long and patterned and are used to hold territory and attract a mate; calls are short signals for contact, alarm and flight.
The recordings here are labelled as call. Listen for differences in rhythm, pitch and repetition – the spectrum display makes it easy to see whether a sound is a pure whistle (a thin line), a harsh call (a broad band) or a trill (rapid repeated marks).
