Colima Warbler

Small sparrowlike bird found in the Caribbean and northern South America. Males are dull olive above with a variable amount of black on the face and breast. Females are plain grayish-olive overall; note the small size, short tail, and pinkish bill and legs. Very similar to female Sooty Grassquit. Found in pairs or small groups in shrubby or grassy areas and forest edge, typically on or near the ground.

Medium-sized flycatcher found in the understory and borders of humid forests. Note two conspicuous buffy wingbars framed with black and contrasting with a brown back, a gray-brown breast, and a buff belly. The lower mandible is paler than the upper. Similar to Fuscous Flycatcher, but without a prominent eyebrow. The song is a sharp “tjew-pew,” with more emphasis on the first note.

Compact songbird with short bill. Males in much of range are olive above, yellow below, with white throat set in black head; males and females on Norfolk Island are olive-brown with yellowish underparts (brightest on undertail). Females vary across range, with eastern birds having some amount of yellow on the underparts and western birds (formerly treated as full species, “Western Whistler”) being gray-brown above and pale below, lacking yellow. Olive Whistler much browner below, with well-defined whitish bib. Inhabits a great variety of habitats. Bright, whistled song varies, but often has a whip-like ending.
