Streak-throated Bush-Tyrant

Confusing flycatcher, fairly small and nondescript. Look for the short bill and round head that can be raised into a slight crest. Dull grayish-brown head shows only a hint of a paler line above eye. Chest is paler gray, which contrasts with the pale yellow belly. Wingbars are present but not bold. Larger and lankier than a beardless-tyrannulet. Looks rather like a diminutive Myiarchus flycatcher. The clear whistled call is a good clue. Found singly or in pairs, usually in scrubby second growth.

A large bulbul with a short brown crest, a gray face, a white throat, a greenish-brown back, and a dirty yellow breast and belly. Found at low and middle elevations in primary and secondary forests and forest edges, as well as in overgrown plantations and gardens. Loud, variable song is a cheery and repetitive stream of various notes, including musical “chew” notes and rougher scolds and rattles. Crest is short and weak, separating it from White-throated and Ochraceous Bulbuls. Brown cap and duller underparts separate this species from Yellow-bellied Bulbul.

Small green hummingbird found in a variety of open and semiopen habitats, such as forest edges, deserts, savannas, and gardens. Visits feeders. Iridescent green body with a forked dark blue tail and dark wings. Males have a black-tipped red bill with a blue throat, while females have a white belly, black mask, and a black bill with a red base.
