I volunteer at a wildlife rescue and rehab center. Mostly at the center, we rehab little songbirds. We have found over the past few years thatour flycatchers have a really hard time surviving our rehab. specifically the western king bird. we have had one about a month now, and it is in terrible condition, you can feel its bones. Any suggestions on the diet it should be on?

Hello and welcome to the forum. Besides the normal things flycatchers eat, you might try some berries. Seems they eat berries in the fall.
