Huet's Fulvetta

Unique trogon with dark purplish head and breast, turquoise back, white undertail, and pale blue bill and eyering. No white band between chest and belly. Female mostly gray with red belly, perhaps most similar to Slaty-tailed Trogon but note pale blue eyering, gray bill, and thin white bars on undertail. Limited range. Look for a bird sitting upright and still at middle levels in the forest, slowly turning head searching for prey. Usually single or in pairs. Song is a fairly fast, accelerating series of cluck notes.

Green hummingbird with red bill, orange tail, and buffy patch on belly. The namesake belly patch can be difficult to see; tail and bill color are better ways to separate it from other hummingbirds. Males and females similar. Common in Mexico; limited range in U.S. Found in a variety of wooded or shrubby habitats, usually around flowers. Visits hummingbird feeders.

Beautiful sparrow with gray upperparts, and black mask and crown separated by a white stripe. Similar to male Collared Warbling-Finch, but breast band is smaller, face stripe does not reach past the front of the eye, and tail lacks white. Inhabits the understory of dry and semi-humid forest. Vocalizations are generally high-pitched: song consists of a few wheezy whistles followed by a quicker trills; most common call is a simple “tink” note.
