Ashy-headed Green-Pigeon
Treron phayrei
The silvery-gray crown of this green pigeon is diagnostic, but can be difficult to see when the bird perches high in the canopy. Adult male is green with an orange chest, dark cinnamon shoulders, and a bright orange patch under the tail. Female is more predominantly green without any orange. Both sexes have the silver crown, black wing tips, and intricate yellow markings on the flight feathers. Gives rather high-pitched whistling coos, generally to the rhythm of “wa-whee-wah-woo”. Strongly favors lowland forests; rare to locally uncommon in foothills.

行为
The ashy-headed green pigeon usually occurs singly or in small groups. Its flight is fast and direct, with the regular beats and an occasional sharp flick of the wings that are characteristic of pigeons in general. It eats the seeds and fruits of a wide variety of plants. It builds a stick nest in a tree and lays two white eggs.

Raimondi's Yellow-Finch
Sicalis raimondii
Very local and nomadic in lower foothills of the Andes. Favors dry stony slopes and canyons, but ranges readily into nearby fields and scrubby areas. Usually in flocks and in areas where other yellow-finches do not occur, but associates readily in fields with other seed-eating birds. Male suggests Bright-rumped Yellow-Finch (of high Andes), but has dark streaking on back, a stouter bill, and a duller yellowish rump. Female is drab overall, but with distinct dark back steaking and a stout bill; usually in company with males.
Red-fronted Coua
Coua reynaudii
Dark, long-tailed, long-legged understory bird. When seen well, the dark-green back, red cap, and blue facial skin are distinctive and beautiful. Very shy and skulking; usually found in the densest tangles of the understory of eastern rainforest. The most common calls are an incredibly long, dry rattle, and a loud single “keeeeow”. Slightly smaller than Red-breasted Coua, with red on the cap rather than the breast. Much longer-tailed than forest-dwelling rails.
Sharp-tailed Ibis
Cercibis oxycerca
A medium-sized wading bird, mostly black with a red bill and legs. Relatively long tail projection imparts a long-bodied appearance which is enhanced by its short legs. At close range, note bare red throat and orbital skin. Occurs in open wetlands and seasonally flooded savannas, usually in pairs or small groups, probing in mud, shallow water, or soft ground for invertebrates and fish. Unusual, far-carrying call is a single, horn-like note, often given in duet by pairs, with one higher-pitched than the other; the overall effect is like the braying of a donkey. Larger and longer-tailed than Bare-faced Ibis, much more vocal, and does not occur in large groups.
