It is obvious how this bird got its Swedish name ('Turquoise flycatcher'): the intense turquoise color of the male! The only clear deviation is the black bridle (the line between the eye and beak). The Verditer flycatcher is a medium-sized (15–17 cm) flycatcher that, like many of its relatives, supplements its insect diet with berries. This species has a large distribution area and occurs in large parts of South and Southeast Asia. In Bhutan we saw it on several occasions.
