This Eastern Wood Pewee, in the Tyrant Flycatcher family, has staked out a section of our yard adjacent to our woods and is vigorously defending it. He darts off his perch to chase everything from chipping sparrows to starlings. At one point he even went after a Common Grackle, which seemed quite ambitious.
Been itching to build him since 2006. I always admired “Tyrant” as a kid, obsessively reading through the BIONICLE guides and fleshing out the little world that I knew. I liked his build and I liked his rocket launcher. “Lurker” was always my favorite but “Tyrant” just always seemed the most easily-buildable and realistically compliant with the Metru era titan sets. I am proud to finally build him.
Hymenops perspicillata
Tyrants often fail to attract much attention from many birders, once they have seen the 'life bird', but this striking species is always welcome !
Usually found in the vicinity of marshes and wetlands, it often sits up prominently...
Southern Pantanal, Brazil
No, it's not a big bird - it's a very small wild pig. The bird is probably inexperienced and is practicing on a species nearer its own size before moving up to its namesake!
The Cattle Tyrant [Machetornis rixosa] is another Neotropical Suboscine species (suborder : Tyranni), and classified as a Tyrant Flycatcher (family : Tyrannidae).
Who would win? I suppose it's odd that they're this close buuuut it's probably in a very close quarters urban environment.
Attractive flycatcher found in marshes and waterbodies. Range across northern South America. A lifer found on a "field birding" (vs. "feeder birding") trip to Colombia in the Casanare region. Hato La Aurora.
Distinctive flycatcher: long central tail feathers usually obvious, longer in males than females. Even without tail, plumage is unique: black body with white back and eyebrow. Fairly small flycatcher, usually perched conspicuously in clearings, open habitats, or forest edges. Listen for rising whistled call.

## C O R N - JANUARY 2026 LIMITED EDITIONS
***THE COMPETITIVE EDGE***
Happy new years everyone, we at CORN are so happy to bring the new year in with three new unique limited edition coats.
These coats are hand painted, human-made and full of love from us here at CORN.
As most of you may know, appaloosa coats are my favorite type of coats to make mainly because there is no wrong way to do an appaloosa.
They are so vibrant and unique in each pattern and shade.
Recently I've been playing the critically aclaimed most toxic game in the world, league of legends. So these coats are inspired by the daring fights, stressful objective steals and heartwarming games that I've had recently in the bot lane on league.
They are also coats that will forever make you stand out on any stage, they are guaranteed to be a hit on any horse.
**What comes with the applier?**
- A un-mirrored limited edition coat
- A hoof applier
**How many?**
Each coat has 10 copies available for purchase, once they're gone they're gone!

Coloramphus parvirostris
We only located this bird in small wooded fragments near to our hotel in Torres del Paine.
Phoebes are proud members (at least they seem so) of the Family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers.
The Eastern Phoebe gets its name from its distinctive but rough two note call, fee-ah-bee or whee-bee. (not to be confused to the clearly whistled two note call of the Chickadee). The discovery of the Eastern Phoebe is credited to Thomas Say (1787-1834), who collected this species along the Arkansas River near Canon City, Colorado during the 1819-1820 expedition to establish military posts along the upper Missouri River.
The Eastern Phoebe holds the distinction of being the subject of the first bird banding experiment in North America. In the early 1800s, J. J. Audubon tied thin silver wires on the legs of a brood of Eastern Phoebes. The following year, he was delighted to discover that they returned to breed in the same area. Phoebes are notorious for returning to build their nest, often right on top of the previous years nest. At one location in New England, successive generations of Phoebes were known to return to breed under the same bridge for over 30 years.
Eastern Phoebes winter in the southern states from Texas to Florida. I found this one perched on a Barbed Wire Fence at Dinner Island Ranch WMA
in Hendry County, Florida.

This Drab Water Tyrant (Ochthornis littoralis) was at La Macarena, Meta, Colombia when I photographed it. It is always found near water, especially large rivers. It is often found along steep banks and on islands, perched on exposed roots and piles of debris. It usually perches about 1 meter above the water and makes short sallies after insects. When approached by a boat or on foot it usually flies only a short distance along the water. La Macarena is part of the Sierra de la Macarena and of the Macarena Special Management Area, which brings together several protected areas.
I made this frame with a Pentax K-1 and the HD Pentax-D FA 150-450mm f/4.5-5.6, at 1/250 sec, f/5.6, ISO 400. IUCN lists the Drab Water Tyrant as Least Concern, with a stable population.

The Great Crested Flycatcher is an aggressive Tyrant Flycatcher, nesting in a variety of woodland and suburban habitats.
From exposed perches it searches for insects and vigorously defends its territory against intruders. Most of the Great Crested Flycatcher's diet consists of flying insects, such as beetles, flies, wasps, katydids, and dragonflies, although fruits of the elderberry, wild cherry, and blackberry are eaten by both adults and young.
It is the one and only flycatcher that breeds in Florida.
I found this one in my backyard! Lake Wales, Florida.

IUCN Red List, Vulnerable.
Altiplano Leste, Distrito Federal, Brazil.
Image of animal in wildlife.
A massive villain who relies on a sharp mind and a powerful set of muscles when committing crimes, preferring to think a plan out, then barge into a scene, guns-a-blazing.
Based on Bane from the Batman series, this guy hasn't got Venom pumping around him, instead it's a crude recreation of energized protodermis.

I photographed this Pied Water-Tyrant (Fluvicola pica) at Hato El Diamante, near San Luis de Palenque, Casanare, Colombia, in January 2020. Males are mostly white, with a black hindcrown and nape, black wings and a mottled black-and-white back. It is described as active and perky, constantly flicking its tail down and up. It feeds on insects, gleaning them from floating and emergent plants, from the water's surface and from open ground. It often sits on low perches such as fence posts and floating vegetation. On the Pauto River at San Luis de Palenque, local guides take visitors by canoe to watch birds, reptiles, otters, monkeys and turtles.
I made this frame with a Pentax K-1 and the HD Pentax-D FA 150-450mm f/4.5-5.6, at 1/2000 sec, f/5.6, ISO 800. IUCN lists the Pied Water-Tyrant as Least Concern, though its numbers are believed to be falling.

Fairly common in many habitats in Chile, I found them typically elusive and hard to get a shot of - this was probably my best effort, in a park in Santiago !
