How to spot
Search in the mid-story of humid montane cloud forests and foothill forests. It often joins mixed-species flocks. Its bold striped plumage aids in identification if a clear view is obtained.
When to spot
Active throughout the year. Best observed in the early morning when foraging activity is at its peak.

Despite its common name, the 'long tail' (longicauda) is not particularly emphasized in field guides; instead, its striking striped pattern is the most notable feature for identification.
