Black-breasted Munia
Lonchura teerinki
A small bird of mid-montane grasslands in western New Guinea. Black face and chest, brown upperparts, yellow rump and tail, yellow sides and white belly bordered with a black line, and a thick, silver-blue bill. Usually seen in small flocks. May have a slight altitudinal overlap with Snow Mountain, but Black-breasted Munia is normally lower and has a black chest. Call, a squealing “week!” repeated constantly.

Ochre-rumped Antbird
Drymophila ochropyga
Medium-sized antbird with a long tail. Found in the understory of montane forests with bamboo. Note the white-tipped black tail with a rufous-orange rump and vent. Males have a black crown and a well-marked face with a black line running through the eyes, a long white eyebrow, and a heavily streaked breast. Females are duller with a buff streaked crown and a gray-brown back.
Great Knot
Calidris tenuirostris
Medium-sized, stocky shorebird found almost exclusively on coastal mudflats during migration, seldom inland. Distinctive adult in breeding plumage has a brick-orange upperwing patch, blackish back, and chest with black mottling. Duller nonbreeding and juvenile plumages are grayish brown above, white below, with grayish mottling in neck and upper breast. Smaller Red Knot much paler in nonbreeding plumage and has shorter bill. Flight call a sharp, whistled “kweet-kweet.”
Ethiopian Bushcrow
Zavattariornis stresemanni
An unusual small crow-like bird with gray, black, and white plumage. There is bright blue bare skin around the eye, and sometimes a small pink patch is also visible behind the eye. The black-and-gray wings show lots of contrast in flight. Found very locally in dry savanna and cultivated areas in southern Ethiopia, usually in small groups. Reminiscent of Wattled Starling, but much larger, with paler underparts and without a conspicuous white rump patch. The calls are high-pitched and babbler-like, unlike those of typical crows.
