It feeds primarily on insects, especially caterpillars, which captures by examining the leaves, even in their lower parts. It is curious that even caterpillars eat with poisonous spines apparently. It also consumes berries, eggs of other birds, which is why it is often chased by suiriris and other species that are on eggs and chicks. Also hunt lizards and frogs.
