Brownish Twistwing
Cnipodectes subbrunneus
A medium-sized flycatcher that sticks to the understory in lowland and foothill forest from Panama to the Amazon basin of Brazil and Peru. Brown above and pale whitish-yellow below. Overall rather nondescript, but look for brighter rusty edging on the wing feathers and tail and a pale brownish eye. Regularly raises wings up while perched. Namesake twisted outer primaries are difficult to see. Most easily identified by voice, a loud, fairly low-pitched “teew!”

Salvadori's Pheasant
Lophura inornata
Chunky pheasant endemic to Sumatra’s highlands and foothills. Male is dark iridescent blue, while the female is warm brown with a dark tail. Both sexes have short tails, bright red patches of bare facial skin, and pale bills with a faint hook. Forages quietly on the forest floor, typically singly, sometimes in pairs. Generally fairly quiet; deep “bwoop” contact calls sometimes given, and males give a wing-whirring display that can be audible at close range.
Vogelkop Bowerbird
Amblyornis inornata
A common bowerbird of montane forest on the Bird’s Head and Neck of New Guinea. Stocky with drab brown plumage. Unlike other related species, the male lacks a crest and resembles the female. Most easily observed at the bower; a spectacular tent-shaped construction which it adorns the front of with colorful objects. No other drab-colored bowerbirds co-occur, and the female Masked Bowerbird has a yellow rather than brown belly and is found at lower elevations. Voice, various loud buzzes, shrieks and squawks.
Spanish Sparrow
Passer hispaniolensis
Similar in size and shape to House Sparrow. Breeding season males have a heavily streaked black breast and back and a rufous crown and nape. Males are duller in the nonbreeding season. Females are very difficult to separate from female House Sparrows but tend to have bigger bills and paler bellies. Colonial, builds huge stick nests, often in/under White Stork nests.
