Canary Islands Chaffinch
Fringilla canariensis
Dapper little finch endemic to the Canarias, where it inhabits a range of habitats, from forests to farmlands. Handsome, brightly colored male has a blue-grayish cowl, pale orangish face and breast, and a black-and-white wing pattern (colors muted in winter). Female much drabber but shares male pattern; especially note the complex wing pattern. Both sexes have white outer tail feathers, often striking in flight such as when flushed. Song is a somewhat buzzy series of up-and-down notes; calls include a somewhat sparrow-like “dwee!”

Pigeon Guillemot
Cepphus columba
Small jet-black seabird of coastal areas of the Pacific. Breeding plumage is black with bold white wing patch and bright red legs. Plumage changes dramatically in winter to whitish overall with dusky markings on body and black wingtips. Often found in shallower coastal waters than other alcids and regularly seen from shore. Dives to hunt for fish and invertebrates. Nests in crevice or burrow in a cliff or around large rocks.
Rufous-browed Conebill
Conirostrum rufum
This small warblerlike bird is rich cinnamon below and gray above. The namesake rufous brow is fairly obvious but blends into the face. Bill is sharply pointed. Sexes alike. Singles or pairs are uncommon in shrubby woodlands and edges in northern Colombia and extreme western Venezuela. Often follows mixed-species flocks.
Rufous-throated Antbird
Gymnopithys rufigula
Medium-sized antbird of rainforest understory, almost always encountered near swarms of army ants, which it follows to pursue insects flushed by the ants. No similar species in range; key field marks are pale legs and striking bare eyering, which appears white in dim forest understory. Frequently seen perched on vertical stems within a meter of the ground. Usually heard prior to being seen; gives low churring calls while foraging and a sharp doubled note when chasing other birds.
