Black-necked Red-Cotinga

Phoenicircus nigricollis

Spectacular blackish and red cotinga; in females the black is replaced by olive-green and the red is paler. Occurs from middle levels to the subcanopy of the interior of tall humid forests. May be found at fruiting trees. Commonest call is a loud, somewhat nasal “whea,” often preceded by a whistling wing whirr, typically performed in a lek together with several other males.

分布与栖息地

The black-necked red cotinga is found in the western Amazon Basin in two distinct ranges, one in the northwest Basin, the other in the central–southwest.<p>The northwestern range in the Amazon Basin has the Amazon River as its southern limit; in the east it is limited to the Rio Negro confluence with the Amazon and then on its western shore and beyond, upstream and crossing into the very southern border area of Venezuela, but continuing west into all of Amazonian southern Colombia and eastern Ecuador. From this contiguous range it extends southward into the very west of the southwestern Amazon Basin in northern Peru, and is again limited to the northern bank of the lower stretch of the Ucayali River, and the north bank Marañón River-(the western Amazon River).<p>The second range in the center–southwest is also of similar size and is limited on the west by the east bank of the Madeira River, the north by the Amazon River, and extends the range east beyond the Tapajós River, the lower downstream half.<p>Of note, the other cotinga in the two-genus Phoenicircus, the Guianan red cotinga has a range in the Guianas and the eastern Amazon Basin; it only intersects ranges with the black-necked in the lower quarter of the Tapajós River drainage, and environs.

Speckled Spinetail

Speckled Spinetail

Thripophaga gutturata

Fairly small, long-tailed reddish-and-tan bird. Light brown body, with reddish tail, wings, and crown, and prominent fine black spotting in the face and breast. Usually forages singly or in pairs in the midstory of mature or secondary rainforest, often with mixed-species flocks. Tail appears very reddish, even from below; smaller than similar foliage-gleaners, which are often present in the same flocks. Its song is an often overlooked, even-paced series of very high notes.

Cuban Emerald

Cuban Emerald

Riccordia ricordii

A pugnacious hummingbird that feeds on flowers and insects and is sometimes found flycatching. Inhabits a broad range of habitats. Often tame around humans. The long-tailed male is swathed entirely in iridescent green and has a distinctive red base to the bill, except for a white patch below the belly and a white spot behind the eye. The female is metallic green above, dingy white below, and has a relatively long, forked tail. The female Bee Hummingbird is much smaller, shorter billed, shorter tailed, and is iridescent turquoise above unlike the Cuban Emerald. Female Ruby-throated Hummingbirds have shorter, unforked tails with white on the tail tip. Vocalizations include a prolonged jumbled series of high-pitched squeaks and buzzes and a high-pitched but descending “tsee, tsee, tsee, tse, tse.”

Moustached Woodcreeper

Moustached Woodcreeper

Xiphocolaptes falcirostris

Large, heavy-billed woodcreeper. Has rather unmarked plumage, but note the buffy eyebrow, moustachial stripe, and throat. No other woodcreeper within its range has such a large, strong bill. Inhabits deciduous dry forests and wooded caatinga. Song is a whining series of unmelodic notes, such as “nk-wiirh, week! weeer, weeer, weeur, weuur.”
