Tyrannus cubensis

Endangered

The Giant Kingbird is a bold tyrant flycatcher of the Americas from temperate North America through tropical South America. It often hunts from exposed perches, sallying after flying insects and sometimes taking fruit or small vertebrates. It faces serious conservation pressure from habitat loss, fragmentation, or small population size.
