About These Birds
Black-capped White-eye
The Black-capped White-eye is a small, greenish-yellow white-eye of montane forests in Borneo, Indonesia, and the Philippines, with a distinctive black cap setting it apart from similar species. It inhabits the canopy and edges of montane forests at medium to high elevations. It feeds on nectar, small insects, and berries, often foraging in small, active flocks.
