The Siberian flycatcher is a small bird about 13 centimeters long. It catches insects right in the air and lives in the forests of Siberia and the Far East in summer, migrating to warm regions for winter.
The Siberian flycatcher differs from other flycatchers by dark streaks on the sides of the body. It is important for the forest because it eats a large number of insects and helps maintain balance in nature.
