Buru Honeyeater

Lichmera deningeri

A medium-sized, largely olive-brown songbird with a striking yellow base to the downcurved bill, a thin yellow line from bill to eye, and dull bare skin behind the eye. Found in foothills and mountains, within forest, forest edge, and scrub as singles and pairs, and also joins mixed-species flocks. Larger and heavier-billed than female Wakolo Myzomela, and further differentiated by distinct pale bill base and thin yellow facial line. Song comprises a monotonous staccato “chew-chew-chew…” with pitch variation between notes.

Nazca Booby

Nazca Booby

Sula granti

Large seabird, very similar to Masked Booby. Long and pointy on all ends: wings, tail, and bill. Adults mostly gleaming white with black flight feathers and face; note pinkish-orange (not yellow) bill to help separate from adult Masked. Young birds darker overall with brown head contrasting with white belly and dirty brown markings on underwings; very similar to young Masked or even adult Brown Booby. Found in the Pacific Ocean from Mexico to Peru where it feeds on fish; breeds on rocky islands, especially the Galapagos.

Bimaculated Lark

Bimaculated Lark

Melanocorypha bimaculata

Chunky ground-dwelling songbird with large-headed, short-tailed profile, found in arid open areas such as deserts and steppe. Readily confused with other large larks, but look for the bulky, dark-tipped bill, rounded ear patch, and a black band below the throat with a break in the middle. Calandra Lark is similar but shows a bright white edge to the trailing edge of the wing and blackish underwings in flight. Song is a long series of grating warbles, whistles, and twitters. Calls are buzzy and rather deep.

Crested Guan

Crested Guan

Penelope purpurascens

Very large, long-tailed game bird of tropical and subtropical forest. Often seen high in trees or flying through the forest canopy; usually not seen in areas near people except in some protected areas due to hunting pressure. Typically in pairs or small groups and wary. Plumage dark overall (often looks blackish) with bright red throat wattle; white streaking on body visible at closer range. Crest is bushy and usually not a striking feature.
