Orange-breasted Green-Pigeon

An attractive small myzomela in which males are brick-red, with a slightly darker patch in front of the eyes. Female has distinctive plumage that is mostly reddish-brown. Found in the canopy of primary rainforest and forest edge as well as secondary growth. Unique reddish coloration separates it from similar species. Common call is a repeated high-pitched, insect-like “tsip.”

Small and rather distinctive terrestrial flycatcher, breeding in the southern Andes at high elevation and migrating north in winter where it can also be found in lowlands. Breeds in open rocky areas, sometimes down to level of open forest. Migrants often in flocks, sometimes a few hundred birds, as on playing fields and beaches. Upperparts relatively dark gray with blackish face mask, and an inconspicuous dark rusty nape patch. Resident Falkland population larger and plainer overall, likely a different species; found on moorland and beaches.

A distinctive small cuckooshrike with a striking, deep rufous underside, a white eyebrow, and extensive bold white markings in wings. Upperside is black in males, gray in females. Juveniles show a rusty-tinged eyebrow and rust-edged upperpart feathers. Found in pairs or small groups in the canopy. Occurs in most environments with trees, including forests, mangroves, sparsely wooded areas, and gardens, most often in the lowlands but also in the foothills. Calls include strident “pips” and chirps, often given repeatedly. Song is a rapid series of piping notes.
