A plain-plumaged whistler of coastal scrub and island vegetation, closely related to the Mangrove Whistler and often treated as its counterpart on smaller offshore islands and coastal fringes.
Sings a distinctive, far-carrying whistled phrase from cover and feeds on insects gleaned from foliage close to the shoreline and mangrove edge.
