Description
Habitat
Biome: Terrestrial [1].
Ecology:
It inhabits lowland forests
, generally below 1,000 m but occasionally
up to 1,200 m. It probably frequents the understorey and appears
to tolerate some habitat
degradation, with records
from disturbed
forest and a clearing in selectively logged forest. Birds caught
in August and September at Dalton Pass
, Luzon, suggest that it may
undertake intra-island movements, but possibly little more than post-breeding
dispersal
.
