Bryan's Shearwater

Slim, dark member of the fairy flycatcher family. Shows a blackish head, a slight crest, a large white lower belly, and broad white corners to the tail. Found in montane forest. Often in pairs, frequently joining mixed-species feeding flocks. A perky, active bird that never seems to stop moving, often fanning its tail. Separated from other crested-flycatchers by its white tail corners.

Stunning grosbeak, entirely slaty gray with striking white throat and thick bright red bill. Female similar but with duller orange bill. Found singly or in pairs, usually at middle levels in forests or edges, often following a mixed-species flock. Listen for the sweet, simple whistled song.

Large, unmistakable woodpecker. Mostly black, with red crest and bold white stripes on head and neck. Flies with deep, rowing wingbeats, almost like a crow but more irregular; also look for mostly white underwings and white patches on upperwing. Pairs inhabit mature deciduous or coniferous forests with large trees. Makes large oval-shaped holes in decaying trees to search for insects. Listen for slow resonant drumming and loud clucking calls. Occasionally visits feeders in appropriate habitat, especially fond of suet.
