Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Rather active, arboreal bird of humid evergreen forest in foothills and highlands. Forages at all levels clambering along branches and amid mossy tangles and epiphytes, at times hanging upside down like a chickadee. Often in pairs or small groups; frequently joins mixed-species feeding flocks. Note the behavior, grayish head with rich buffy spectacles, and pale buff throat (scaly markings often hard to see).
