Principe Speirops

Principe Speirops

Zosterops leucophaeus

A bulky, mostly pale white-eye with a whitish head and belly and gray-brown wings and tail. Small to large groups join mixed flocks in forest and plantations throughout Príncipe. Calls include a high-pitched chittering, uttered as a group, and a repeated “tsit-tit-cher-it-it” song. Principe Speirops may join the same flocks as Principe White-eye, which is slightly smaller and much darker, lacking the distinctive white head and underparts.

Sometimes joins mixed flocks with other songbirds. Visits feeders. Listen for insistent yammering calls. Some subtle variation across range, mainly in the darkness of the sides and back, width of the black crown, and vocalizations.
