Hemipus picatus
This bird catches insects by gleaning foliage and making aerial sallies for flushed insects. It will associate with other small birds such as babblers, Velvet-fronted Nuthatch and white-eyes in feeding flocks. They move through the forest and rarely stick to a particular location. The nesting season in Sri Lanka is mainly from February to August
