Halcyon pileata occurs mainly in lowlands up to 1,525m. In temperate regions it is found in deciduous forest near to water. In the tropics and subtropics it is found in coastal mangroves and wooded seashores, but also inland across creeks, lagoons, estuaries, rice fields, open cultivated land, Nipa palm groves, willow jungle, forest clearings, streams in bamboo-forest and in gardens. They feed on insects and occasionally frogs and reptiles in inland habitats, but mainly on fish and crabs in coastal habitats (Woodall and Kirwan 2020).
There are monitoring schemes across some parts of the range.
Conservation Actions Proposed
Extend monitoring across the range, especially in the non-breeding areas. Research of migration ecology, fine-scale habitat requirements and the nature and extent of threats responsible for declines.
