Unlike other birds of its kind, this I saw you, one might say, is almost silent. It only sings with certain intensity at dawn and dusk. A characteristic of his song is that of denouncing his presence in the woods: it sounds like a high-pitched and nasal hiccup, which is repeated several times. In some periods, some individuals of the species call at the same time in the forest.

Visually, it stands out for its huge beak and head, in addition to the striated design of its plumage (which gives it its popular name). Another difference: the white superciliary stripes do not join at the back of the neck, as in other birds of striped plumage of their species. It spends most of its time perched in trees.
