Weird little flycatcher with a shaggy crown and a staring eye. The only member of its genus to range north into Central America in addition to South America.

Main Brackets!

There are four brackets [Fave, Pretty, True, Four] comprising of 32 birds, for a total of 128 birds in this poll! I will reblog a version of this post with every bird listed via text within their bracket, so it is easier to find for those with image issues. It's gonna take a while to actually put the posts together for the first round, seeing as there are 64 battles happening, so expect the polls to go up around July 12th.

Below is a link for submitting any cool facts or info about the birds you want to win. It's not necessary to send info here, but I like to give the option to infodump about birds, and it helps with keeping things organized. As a heads up, the submission box is capped at one response only (with up to three birds in said response) just to keep things from getting cluttered.

As per tumblr etiquette, you are totally free to reblog the polls themselves with as much propoganda as you want. These submissions are just to help me fill the poll post with some cool facts.

My favorite is definitely the Scale-crested Pygmy Tyrant.

I had no idea what was going to pop up when I searched that name (should have taken your name and picture as a hint 😂) but I can say that I was not disappointed. Expectations exceeded, I absolutely love this little fluff monster (X)

Sometimes, Blue would creep outside for an infinitesimal break, and as she lay her head back against the brick wall of the alley behind the restaurant, she’d dream idly about careers studying tree rings. Swimming with manta rays. Scouring Costa Rica to find out more about the scale-crested pygmy tyrant.

Blue sargent knows what she’s talking about

I had the most amazing trip to Leeds the other week, guesting with @easytigertattooco alongside some amazing artists! Got started on this tropical sleeve for Abby, who sat so bloody amazing! We managed to line the majority of her arm and complete our little scale-crested Pygmy Tyrant. Can’t wait to carry on with this piece.. thanks for looking after me Easy Tiger! -⠀ #tattoo #neotradeu #sleevetattoo #neotraditional #neotraditionaltattoo #neotraditionaltattoos #largetattoo #tattooartmagazine #leedstattoo #guestspot #tattoolifemagazine #tattooartists #animaltattoos #animaltattoo #illustration #ink #illustrationtattoo #tropicalbirds #detailedtattoo #illustration #scalecrestedpygmytyrant #totaltattoomagazine #neotradworldwide #birdtatroos #tropicaltattoo #girlswhotattoo #tattoo_art_worldwide #femaletattooers #eternalink #TATTOODO⠀ @tattoosnob @tattooartmagazine @tattoolifemagazine @tattoo.artists @tttcollector @tttism @tattoo_art_worldwide @tattooinkspiration @tattoos_of_instagram @tattoodo @inkedmag @inkpplcom @insta_tattoo100 @art.of.colour @skinart_mag @neotraditionaltattooers⠀ (at Leeds) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxSb_FwB4ri/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1e5lct4pdot5r

I thought this was a really cute bird and along with its name it makes me chuckle. It’s a Scale-crested Pygmy-Tyrant. On Stonehenge aqua hot press paper with new paint brushes. More about those later. They are a game changer! #watercolorpainting #birdpainting #scalecrestedpygmytyrant #cutebirds #natureillustrationart #dailyarts #worksonpaper #etsy #etsyseller #myart #instaart #paintingtheskykingdom #stonehengepaper #9x9 #8x8 #watercolor #aquarellegallery https://www.instagram.com/p/CNrHjzxjnYz/?igshid=116l4on820k3t
