Gray Flycatcher Images, Facts and Information:

Empidonax wrightii

  • Gray Flycatchers are small flycatchers with gray to olive-gray upperparts and light gray underparts, long tails with white outer edges, white eye rings and pale wing bars.  Gray Flycatchers are known for repeatedly twitching their tails up and down while perched.
  • Gray Flycatchers are migratory. Gray Flycatchers are found in sagebrush steppes, pinyon pine and juniper woodlands or open Ponderosa pine forests in western North America.
  • Gray Flycatchers eat beetles, grasshoppers, damselflies, moths and other insects.
  • Gray Flycatchers lay 3 to 4 eggs which hatch in 14 days. The females incubate and they are monogamous.
  • A group of flycatchers can be called a “swatting”, “zapper”, “zipper” or and “outfield” of flycatchers.
