Feeding Habits
White-crowned Robin-chat primarily feeds on a diet of insects, with a particular preference for termites and ants. It forages on the ground, flipping over leaves and debris to locate its prey. Its unique adaptation lies in its skilled hunting technique.
Habitat
White-crowned Robin-chat typically inhabits a variety of wooded environments, ranging from thickets and gallery forests in regions receiving annual rainfall between 300–500 mm, to dry savanna-woodlands.
