Dark-faced Ground Tyrant

A small, ground-dwelling flycatcher found throughout southern Patagonia and the Falkland Islands. Recognisable by its dark face, pale grey underparts and upright stance, it is remarkably tame and often approaches hikers while searching for insects disturbed by their footsteps. Frequently seen on open grassland, rocky shores and mountain valleys, it is one of Patagonia's most familiar and photogenic birds.
