Yellow-throated Hanging-Parrot
Loriculus pusillus
Tiny short-tailed parrot, endemic to Java and Bali. Leaf-green overall, with a bright red rump, pale eyes, and dainty orange bill. Pale orange patch on the chest is not always apparent. No similar species exist in its restricted range. Inhabits forested and wooded areas in lowlands and foothills. Due to its size and coloration, can be difficult to see; listen for its high-pitched “tsee!”, often given while in flight. Unlike larger parrots, does not tend to gather in large flocks, usually moving singly or in pairs. Often visits flowers.

Dwarf Cassowary
Casuarius bennetti
A huge flightless bird of hill and montane forest; occasionally in lowland rainforest, especially where other cassowary species are absent. The smallest member of the family. Plumage loose and black in adults, brown in juveniles. Adults have a bright blue neck with a red patch on the lower nape. Also note the low, rounded casque. Very secretive and seldom seen. Forages for fallen fruit on the forest floor. Similar to other cassowary species but smaller in size, with lower casque, lacking wattles and does not normally co-occur.
Black Tinamou
Tinamus osgoodi
Large, rare tinamou found in cloud forest along the east slope of the Andes. It is uniformly sooty gray, much darker and plainer than Gray Tinamou. Rusty lower underparts are hard to see in the field. Like other forest tinamous, it is far more likely to be heard than seen. Vocalizations include a low, drawn out coo, like a dove’s but longer, and a series of low, modulated whistles.
Bare-eyed Antbird
Rhegmatorhina gymnops
Fantastic-looking antbird with a bold whitish bare eye-ring and a restricted range. Males have a black head and breast, and are otherwise cinnamon-brown; females are duller around the head, but otherwise also cinnamon. Occurs in the understory of humid forest, where almost invariably found attending army-ant swarms. Song is a short series of high descending notes, ending in a harsh “churr.”
