It is a snappy-looking bird whose male is black with a white throat and yellow belly. Two black patches on either side of the chest give him a “vested” appearance. The female is soft brown above with a darker tail and wingtips, and a pale-yellow belly which blends gradually into the breast. They are found from the lower foothills up into montane areas, where it inhabits open areas with tall growth, particularly edges and clearings.

One of my first flowerpeckers - the male is brightly-coloured & the female is predominantly brown. This is a lowland species, often found in gardens with flowering and fruiting plants, particularly mistletoe. Often detected through its metallic ticking calls.
