A tiny, active warbler-like bird with a yellow belly and grey head, notable for its distinctive domed, hanging nest built from grass and plant fibres, often close to human habitation.
Gleans small insects from foliage at low to mid levels and adapts well to gardens, coastal scrub and mangroves, making it one of the more easily seen small birds around towns and villages.
