The male and female cooperate in building the cup-shaped nest, which is constructed from twigs and lined with finer vegetation.
It builds its nests in dense shrubs at heights of three to eight feet, typically under a large branch for protection: both from other birds and the sun.
The young are fledged 11 to 13 days after they hatch.
