How to spot
Scan the mid to upper canopy of montane forests. Look for its diagnostic golden face. While it can be active and hard to follow, its distinct appearance and high-pitched, simple calls make it identifiable.
When to spot
A permanent resident in its highland habitats. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon when foraging for insects.
