Chrysocolaptes erythrocephalus
A rare large woodpecker of forest and edge, where at least some large trees remain, on Palawan and neighboring islands. Green on the back and wings, with dark underparts and neck heavily marked with a cream color. Crown slopes to an angular crest above a large black ear spot. Head is bright red in males and red with orange spots on the crown in females.

分布与栖息地
This bird is found in primary and secondary forest, and clearings with many standing trees, usually in pairs. Breeding activity has been recorded between Jan-May.<p>IUCN has assessed this bird as near threatened with the population being estimated at 1,000 to 2,499 mature individuals. This species' main threat is habitat loss and hunting.<p>Lowland forest loss, degradation and fragmentation have been extensive and are ongoing on Palawan and logging and mining concessions have been granted for most remaining forest tracts on the island. Illegal logging is thought to persist across much of the south.<p>It is recommended to conduct surveys in potentially suitable habitat in order to calculate density estimates, and calculate remaining extent of suitable habitat to refine the population estimate. Encourage careful reforestation activities around remaining forests and law enforcement to stop small-scale yet rampant illegal logging.

Black-headed Apalis
Apalis melanocephala
A well-marked apalis with dark upperparts, white underparts, and a long tail with white tips. There is considerable geographical variation; the darkness of the upperparts ranges from black to olive-gray; the length of the tail varies; and a buff wash on the throat may be present or absent. Throughout the range, females have paler upperparts than males. Found in humid forest and lush scrub at middle elevations. Can be confused with other apalises, but readily identified by a combination of range, vocalizations, strongly contrasting plumage, and the white tips (rather than clean edges) of the tail. The song can be a repeated single “swit” or a series of more complex two-note or three-note phrases.
Barred Puffbird
Nystalus radiatus
An unobtrusive bird with an oversized head and bill. Look for tiger-striped pattern—warm cinnamon-brown overall with uneven black barring. Also note slightly darker cap and staring pale eye. Uncommon; found around forest edge and secondary woodland in the lowlands from Panama to western Ecuador. Perches still for long periods of time, often on an exposed perch. Frequently detected by distinctive wolf-whistling calls.
Canebrake Groundcreeper
Clibanornis dendrocolaptoides
Large, long-tailed ovenbird, rusty above and grayish below. Note the buff eyebrow and black spots at the sides of the throat. Found in montane forest and old second growth; often associated with bamboo or dense understory, usually near streams. Behavior poorly known, but forages in pairs both arboreally and terrestrially. Song is a loud series of staccato notes.
