Distribution and habitat
It is found throughout most of the Amazon Basin, except the area east of the Rio Negro. Rarely found at the edges of the forest, it prefers being at the mid-strata level deep in the forest. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.
Description
The dwarf tyrant-manakin is dull olive above, but lights to a yellow-olive below. It has a short tail.
Behavior
These birds rarely move, but produce a distinctive two-note call, which readily identifies them.
gollark: That's actually pretty good because it's not copyable and impossible to fake.
gollark: I have one which uses asymmetric cryptography stuff - private key on the disk/card, public key stored... publicly - which means it doesn't need a server and can just pull off HTTP, but this is also neat.
gollark: Oh cool, a good keycard door lock program.
gollark: Obviously all this needs power, so there's a 16kRF/t TBU oxide reactor (machine-designed) on the left powering it. Thorium is supplied by the lens of the miner setup and it somehow runs net-positive.
gollark: The roof has an AE2 system glued to it which does the main crafting.
