PROPORCIONADO POR MERLIN

A mostly black tit with a white belly and white marks in the wings. Found in rather moist savanna and woodland and along forest edges, mostly at middle and higher elevations. Usually in pairs or small groups, and often joins mixed-species flocks. Call is a classic tit “chee-chee-di-di-di,” raspy and often repeated. The song consists of musical or slightly burry whistled phrases of 2-3 notes, each phrase repeated 2-3 times. Similar to black-tits, but easily separated by the white belly.
