A tiny round bird with a slightly downturned bill. Brown on the back, wings, and crown. Face, chest, and belly are lavender-gray. Shows brown mottling on chest and black on the bill base and in front of the eye. Common in primary forest and forest edge, more common in highlands. Short bill eliminates confusion with sunbirds and myzomelas. Common call is a high-pitched “tschip-tschip.”
