Birds of this species were common in primary forest at the three
localities listed under "specimens." They travel in small, loose
flocks, calling as they move through the forest. Periodic calling,
interspersed with periods of silence, was characteristic of the
species; vocalization of this sort may function in maintaining the
unity of the well spaced flock.

I saw several flocks of this species in moss forest at a point 5.5
miles southwest of Tenom. Some were observed going into cavities in
the moss, where they apparently caught insects. They sometimes did
this simultaneously, in several places on the same tree.
