Bare-eyed White-eye

The male is a beautiful and unmistakable sunbird with a pale yellow throat, an iridescent green cap and chin, a black breast band, and a chestnut belly. The color of the upperparts varies geographically, being chestnut-brown in the west and blackish-brown in the east. Females have a faint pale eyebrow and heavy streaking below. Found in lowland rainforest, gallery forest, plantations, and gardens. Female similar to female Johanna’s Sunbird, but has a shorter bill. One characteristic call is a loud “chee-uu.” The song consists of series of squeaky whistles in a simple pattern. 

A handsome, distinctive goose of wetlands, lakes, and slow-moving rivers especially in wooded and forested areas. Usually in pairs or small groups, often associating with groups of Upland Geese. Unlike the slightly larger Upland Goose, sexes of Ashy-headed look alike. At a distance, the bright rusty breast is usually more noticeable than the ashy-gray head. Like other austral geese, shows bold black-and-white wing pattern in flight.

The largest nuthatch in the world, about the size of a bulbul. Coloration similar to many other nuthatches: gray above and white below, with a thick black line through the eye. Picky in its habitat preferences and as a result generally uncommon or absent through much of its range; requires extensive stands of mature tall pines in foothills and montane regions. Can be quite loud, giving a hoarse chatter reminiscent of a corvid; also gives a clipped fluty whistle.
