Plain-backed Antpitta

A large warbler with a yellowish eyebrow and a dark eye-stripe. Crown and upperparts warm olive-brown. Body and tail messily interspersed with white, giving a variably patchy white-and-brown appearance. Found in brushy forest and reed beds. Most common vocalizations reported to be loud scolding “chack-chack” calls and chirping.

Medium-sized, richly-colored bird of swampy forests. Mostly rufous brown with a dark brown crown and back and a bright rufous-orange tail. Shows a prominent eyebrow extending well behind eye, like others in genus. Occurs primarily in lower levels of seasonally flooded lowland forests, palm swamps, and forest with a dense understory of heliconias or palms where it is uncommon and rarely seen. Forages for insects by probing into hanging dead leaves or accumulated detritus at bases of palm fronds, sometimes with mixed-species flocks but often encountered away from them. Vocalizations, loud but infrequent, include an extraordinarily long, ascending trill and an abrasive chatter, the latter given in alarm. Best told from other species by bright cinnamon underparts and tail contrasting with brown back.

Medium-sized honeyeater found in coastal habitats of eastern Australia. Back is brown-green, breast is gray, and underparts are pale. Distinguished from Varied Honeyeater by presence of clear barring on the throat and lack of yellow underparts and breast streaking. Usually found in or around mangroves, where it is typically quite conspicuous and vocal.
