Pale Flycatcher
Pallid Flycatcher
Bradornis pallidus
Observed near Mweiga, Nyeri County, Kenya, December 2016.
These active small birds perch upright at a moderate height off the ground in open areas and sally after flying insects. They are likely to return to the same spot again so long as their success continues. This species has a plain gray-brown back with the underparts all very pale, almost white.
