Blue-Breasted Blue Flycatcher
BLUE-BREASTED BLUE FLYCATCHER
Cyornis herioti
Family Muscicapidae
Bird # 307 - March 2011
This is called Blue-breasted Flycatcher in the Kennedy guide. This is an uncommon Philippine endemic. It is about 6" long. It is described in the Kennedy guide as secretive and poorly known. The group saw it on the trail and also in our campsite near our tent. Tonji also saw it near our camp bathroom. When we saw it on the trail, It was hard to get pictures because it was in a dim area with a lot of trees and foliage. All three times, it was calling out and that's how we spotted it.
