Schwartz's Antthrush
Chamaeza turdina
A secretive, long-legged and scaly bird of cloud forest understory. Shows white eyebrow, throat, and cheeks, with rufous-brown upperparts, contrasting black and white scalloped underparts, and a short brown tail, usually held cocked up. Sexes similar. Common, alone or in pairs walking on the floor of mature cloud forest. Hard to see but very vocal; song is a remarkably long series of notes without pause for 30 seconds or more, “Cu cu cu cu cu cu cu…” Similar to Short-tailed Antthrush, which has buffier and less scalloped underparts, more olive-brown upperparts, and a white tipped tail; Schwartz’s is usually found at higher elevations than Short-tailed.

Vega Gull
Larus vegae
A large, sturdy gull of East Asia. Adults have a fairly pale gray back, pale eye, and dull pinkish legs. Takes four years for immatures to progress from mostly brown to fully white and gray adult plumage; intermediate plumages are often mottled and messy. Extremely variable plumage can make identification tricky. Occurs inland and along the coast, frequenting river mouths, harbors, beaches, lakes, and ponds. Often forms flocks with other gulls. Back color of adults generally a shade darker than that of American Herring Gull. Very similar to Mongolian Gull, and separation is tricky, but has a larger head and bill; adults also generally have pinker legs.
Samar Hornbill
Penelopides samarensis
A fairly large bird of lowland and foothill forest. Small for a hornbill. Bill fairly short with black bands, and with bare skin around the eyes and chin. Male has pale underparts and head with a black cheek, a pale buffy tail with a black tip, and pale blue facial skin. Female is entirely black with a buffy band through the center of the tail and darker blue facial skin. Rufous Hornbill occurs in some of the same areas, but has a red bill. Samar Hornbill’s voice is a short, medium-pitched honk, reminiscent of a squeaky toy, often given in rapid series.
Pied Cormorant
Phalacrocorax varius
Large black and white cormorant with a long ivory-colored bill. Note black "trousers" that help distinguish it from Little Pied Cormorant, which also has a shorter yellow bill. Common in marine environments, but also on inland waterways and large dams.
