How to spot
Listen for its distinctive, accelerating 'chip-chip-chip' or 'tew-tew-tew' calls. Scan the dense foliage patiently, watching for subtle movements. Often found in mixed-species flocks.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active in the early morning and late afternoon. Calls are frequent, especially during the breeding season.
