Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

A fairly small bird of lowland and foothill forest and overgrown disturbed areas on Luzon. Rufous-brown on the wings, back, and tail, with a gray head, heavily-streaked pale underparts, and a black face and moustache stripe. Often found in mixed-species flocks. Somewhat similar to Stripe-sided and Long-billed Rhabdornises, but smaller, with a white eye-ring rather than a black band through the eye. Voice includes a loud rattling trill and various quiet chips and squeals.
