Rwenzori Hill Babbler
Sylvia atriceps
Chunky mid-sized bird with a rich-brown back, a gray breast, rufous flanks, and a black head. Found in thick and tangled portions of the understory and mid-story of montane forest, usually in pairs. Skulking bird that is most often detected by voice: a pleasant series of several fluty whistles. Similar to illadopsises, but easily separated by its all-dark head.

Purple-throated Cotinga
Porphyrolaema porphyrolaema
Striking, ornately-colored cotinga. Male and female are uniquely beautiful: males are black above, white below, with a bright purple throat and breast; females are tawny yellowish with extensive black barring. Found in the canopy of mature rainforest; seemingly preferentially around water. Its song is a mellow whistled “wheeeu”, which sounds similar to several other species like Cinereous Mourner and Chestnut-capped Puffbird.
Black-faced Babbler
Turdoides melanops
Dull brownish babbler with a pale eye. Found very locally in areas of thick mixed savanna. Almost always in small groups, which feed by hopping across the ground. Raucous babbling call is frequently given, usually by a whole group in chorus. Similar in shape, size, and overall brown coloration to Arrow-marked Babbler, but easily separated by pale eyes, black lores, and broad and messy markings below. Also easily separated from Hartlaub’s Babbler by the white eye and dark rump.
Black-winged Petrel
Pterodroma nigripennis
A small petrel with relatively long, broad wings. The underwings appear darker than in most other small petrels because of the wide black margin around the edges of the wings and a broad black diagonal bar on the inner wing. Migrates through Hawaiian waters, usually from spring through fall. Regularly seen offshore from boats, occasionally from shore.
