Yellow-sided Flowerpecker
Dicaeum aureolimbatum
A tiny, short-tailed songbird with a thick bill. Has deep olive upperparts, dark wings, and clean white underparts with a conspicuous yellow wash on the flanks. Juvenile shows a pale-based bill and duller flanks. Singles and pairs can be found in a wide variety of habitats in the lowlands and foothills, including forest, forest edge, and cultivated areas. Restricted to Sangihe, Sulawesi, and nearby satellite islands. Yellow flanks are diagnostic, lacking in all other local flowerpeckers. Calls include a wet “swit” note and an extremely high-pitched, monotonous “tzit-tzit-tzit…”.

Pink-backed Pelican
Pelecanus rufescens
Small by pelican standards, though still a very large bird! Adult is mostly pale gray with a pinkish bill and (in breeding plumage) a gray crest. Immature darker gray. Found in many wetland habitats with open water, including lakes, ponds, and coastal lagoons. Usually in small groups. Often confused with Great White Pelican, but Pink-backed is much smaller. In flight, the outer wing is dark gray rather than black, and it contrasts much less with the pale portions of the wing.
Ringed Teal
Callonetta leucophrys
Small distinctive duck. Males have a pinkish breast that is spotted in black with a rich chestnut wing and a metallic green patch on the flight feathers. Note the blue bill. Females have a striking brown-and-white face pattern, and are mostly brown above and mottled or banded brown below. In flight shows dark wings with white-and-green bands. Occurs in marshes and swamps with abundant vegetation; can be even seen perched on fences or low trees.
White-rumped Swiftlet
Aerodramus spodiopygius
A small, mostly gray swiftlet, paler beneath with a pale throat and darker cap. White rump varies from white to pale gray. Occurs over a wide range of habitats up to 1900 meters of elevation. Similar to both Uniform Swiftlet and Mayr’s Swiftlet, but smaller, with a paler rump. Main call is a pleasant twitter, “twee-twee-chew-chew.”
