at medium tree-height in the thick of <strong>de</strong>nse forest. It<br />
is most active at dawn and dusk. This species often<br />
spends long periods perched on low branches, where<br />
it will stay motionless except for its tail, which it flicks<br />
incessantly from si<strong>de</strong> to si<strong>de</strong> and up and <strong>do</strong>wn.<br />
It eats insects and larvae, slugs, small vertebrates<br />
and sometimes fruit. It hunts above the un<strong>de</strong>rgrowth,<br />
but will also pick from the ground. Sometimes it congregates<br />
as a mixed flock.<br />
The pair will dig a gallery up to two meters long in<br />
animal burrows, where they take turns incubating their<br />
two or three eggs and tending the brood.<br />
