" These little birds, so far as I have yet ascertained, adhere 
exclusively to the wild uplands, preferring the lower and more 
umbrageous to the higher and barer trees, and seem to procure no 
portion of their food from the ground. They are usually found in 
small flocks ; and have a monotonous feeble monosyllabic note. 
They feed on viscid stony berries and fruits, and tiny insects that 
harbour in the cups of large deep flowers, such as the Rhododendrons, 
and to which the birds cling with their strong feet. Their intestines 
are about the length of their body (from the tip of the bill to the tip 
of the tail), furnished with grain-like cceca near the lower end, and 
of nearly uniform diameter. Their stomach has the muscular coat of 
very moderate sub-equal thickness, and the lining neither very 
tough nor much grooved." — (Hodgs., J. A. S. Beng. YI. p. 231.)
