Large-billed Crow

This well-named hummingbird is entirely glittering green with blue highlights on the crown and belly. The tail is rather long and noticeably notched. The bill is slightly decurved and most of the lower mandible is dull reddish. Females are more speckled below than males. Found in open woodlands or scrubby habitats, where they often feed from flowers in the canopy.

Small antwren of rainforest midstory. Males are pale gray with black and white wing bars. Throat is gray in most of its range, but in southwestern Amazonia the center of the throat is black (but never as extensive as the broad black bib of Long-winged Antwren, which also is overall a darker gray). Females are light buffy tan below, gray above, with no wing bars, appearing more two-toned than very similar but more evenly-colored female Long-winged Antwren. Often can be heard singing in the early morning, an even paced series of rising “wuee” notes at a pace of about two notes per second.

A medium-sized bird of lowland wooded habitats, including mangroves, on Tanimbar Island where the only triller. White underparts, black upperparts with short, white eyebrow, 2 white wing-bars and other white-edged wing feathers. Loetoe Monarch has a white belly and black wing with a white patch, but a very different head pattern, with black throat and white cheek. Call, a sharp, nasal “jek!”.
