Description
The Spotted Flycatcher, Muscicapa striata, is a small passerine bird in the Old World flycatcher family. It breeds in most of Europe and western Asia, and is migratory, wintering in Africa and south western Asia. It is declining in parts of its range. Spotted Flycatchers hunt from conspicuous perches, making sallies after passing flying insects, and often returning to the same perch. Their upright posture is characteristic. They are birds of deciduous woodlands, parks and gardens, with a preference for open areas amongst trees, like here in Olive trees in Lesbos !
Le Gobemouche gris (Muscicapa striata) est une petite espèce d'oiseau de 13,5 à 15 cm de longueur appartenant à la famille des muscicapidés. Le Gobemouche gris recherche des zones boisées où les arbres sont bien espacés. On le trouve donc dans les peuplements feuillus peu denses, les futaies aérées de chênes, les lisières et clairières,…ou, comme ici, dans les oliviers à Lesbos
