Rufous-throated Dipper

Large black and yellow toucan with a yellow stripe on the top of the bill. Inhabits lowland and foothill rainforest west of the Andes. Similar to chestnut-mandibled races of Yellow-throated Toucan, but with black on the lower part of the bill. This can be hard to distinguish in poor light, so voice is often the best way to ID: it makes a rasping or croaking call instead of a yelp.

Rotund, brown bird with long legs and a short tail restricted to the Bolivian Andes. Looks rather plain in the field, though may show a buffy tinge to the underparts. Similar to Leymebamba Antpitta, but larger, longer legged, and lacks gray in the plumage. Vocalizations include a whistled “wit-do” and a trill that drops slightly in pitch and then rises. It was formerly considered a subspecies of what used to be called Rufous Antpitta.

A large brown babbler of scrubby edges, second growth, and open forest in hilly and montane habitats. Usually in pairs when breeding, but sometimes in larger groups in the winter. Gray-brown from the crown down to the tail, orange on the face, sides, and undertail, and white on the throat, breast, and belly. Lacks strong streaking or spotting. Like other scimitar-babblers, frequently duets, giving far-carrying hooting choruses together. Also gives rolling chattering series typical of the genus. Red-eyed Scimitar-Babbler of Myanmar and northwest Thailand was formerly treated as part of this species; Rusty-cheeked is restricted to the Himalayas.
