It is a medium-sized bird about 19 centimetres (7.5 in) long with a long black tail with a red base. Males have greyish-brown upper parts; a chestnut crown and breast; and dark facial markings. Females are similar but lack the chestnut crown and have streaked; buff underparts. There is a wing bar which is white in the male and buff in the female.
