Marsh Babbler
Pellorneum palustre
A small, mostly brown bird with a heavily streaked pale breast. Note the white eyebrow, the white throat, and the rusty flanks and belly. Found in wetlands with dense grasses and reeds, where it is difficult to see as it forages for invertebrates. Best located by song, which includes a series of scratchy notes followed by 1-4 loud, musical whistles.

Pale-rumped Swift
Chaetura egregia
Medium-sized swift with a strongly contrasting rump patch. Dark slaty gray, with a lighter gray throat and a large white rump patch. Paler, more contrasting throat, and much lighter rump than in the similar Gray-rumped Swift; Short-tailed Swift has a bright white rump patch like Pale-rumped, but has a shorter tail, bigger primary bulge, and pale undertail coverts (evenly gray in Pale-rumped). Readily associates with other swift species in flocks.
Shade Warbler
Horornis parens
A small, skulking warbler. Appears three-toned: grayish below, chestnut brown above, with a pale rufous head and a slightly darker eye-stripe. Prefers dense undergrowth and tangles in forest or on forest edge above 600 meters of elevation, but locally lower. Common call is a rising whistle followed by a falling whistle.
Australasian Grass-Owl
Tyto longimembris
Reclusive and rarely seen owl of cane fields, meadows, and other areas with tall grassy cover. Tan-brown overall with black, white, and orange mottling on the wings. Flies low over grassy areas, primarily during dawn and dusk, often with long legs dangling. Heart-shaped facial disk, very similar to Barn Owl and Masked Owls. Nests in dense fields; fluffy owlets often exposed during harvesting season in agricultural areas.
