Cloven-feathered Dove

A small, slender-billed, warbler-like brown songbird restricted to a cluster of small islands in Indonesia. Rufous-brown above with a gray head, and whitish underneath with rufous-washed flanks. Adult has a pale iris, immature a dark eye and a yellow-washed underside. Singles or pairs occupy a variety of lowland wooded environments, including mangroves, favoring vine tangles. No other warbler-like birds in its range. Vocalizations include a high-pitched warbled song, regularly rising and falling in pitch. Also gives a two-note “wi-wir” call.

Small warbler found in cloud forest along the east slope of the Andes from central Peru to western Bolivia. It has yellow underparts, olive upperparts, and yellow eyebrows. Central crown stripe is orange, but this can be hard to see in the field. Similar to Two-banded Warbler, but lacks a broken eyering and head stripes are not as dark. Song is a quick series of clear whistles; also gives gravelly chip notes. Usually seen in pairs at lower to middle levels of the forest. Formerly called Golden-bellied Warbler.

Spectacular purple turaco with a beautiful facial pattern: a large red-and-yellow bill, red bare skin around the eye, a white patch behind the eye, and a dark red back of the head. Shows large crimson wing patches in flight. Found along forest edge and in gallery forest and lush gardens. Acts like a typical turaco, bouncing through the trees and flying occasionally with short bursts of wingbeats and long glides. Call is a low, rollicking trill that is often given in raucous chorus by a group. Similar to Ross’s Turaco, but overlap in range is minimal, and Violet is easily separated by many details of its facial pattern, including its two-colored bill.
