" This lovely little creeper is found in great abundance in the dense 
woods of the Neilgherries. I have seen it, though rarely, below the 
Ghauts, also in thick forest jungle. It hunts, in general, in small 
parties of five or six, is very active and restless, creeping round the 
horizontal branches chiefly, and seeming to prefer the under-side of the 
branches, and also running downwards. It feeds on various small 
insects, which it picks off the bark, but does not tap like the common 
Nuthatch. Irides light yellow ; biU orange." — (Jerdon.) 
" Not uncommon in the suburbs of Moulmain." — (Eev. F. Mason.)
