Description
Habitat
Ecology: This is a forest
species, typically found in family groups, foraging
at all levels, and has a varied diet
, which is known to include several species of land
snails, ants
, flies, beetles, cockroaches, large wasps, seeds and fruit pulp3. It has a well-defined breeding period from late August to early January, nesting in a wide variety of tree
species in the lower canopy
of tall forest. The species breeds either in pairs or trios, commonly of unrelated birds, probably a consequence of the island's stable habitat
and climax forest, where young birds may be more able to secure a nesting territory when belonging to a trio than a pair2. Clutch-size is two to three and, once hatched, most chicks fledge2.[1]
