Greater Swamp Warbler
Acrocephalus rufescens
Large, nondescript, long-tailed, long-billed wetland warbler. Primary habitat is papyrus swamp, though sometimes uses other types of reedbeds and wet scrub. Quite shy and secretive. Sings frequently, a slow and low-pitched mix of both rasping notes and more musical notes that ends in a trill. Similar to Lesser Swamp Warbler, but larger and longer-billed, lacking a pale eye-stripe. Also similar to Great Reed Warbler, but shorter-winged, darker, and grayer, without an eye-stripe.

Willow Warbler
Phylloscopus trochilus
Looks very much like a chiffchaff, and best identified by voice: song is pleasant, slightly descending warble, very different from song of chiffchaff. Compared to chiffchaff, Willow Warbler is often brighter, more yellowish (especially in autumn) with stronger pale eyebrow, pinkish legs, and tends not to habitually dip its tail. However, many birds seen are best left unidentified. Found in wooded habitats, from mixed forest to willow thickets in open country.
Emerald-chinned Hummingbird
Abeillia abeillei
Very small, short-billed hummingbird of humid evergreen and pine-evergreen forest in highlands and upper foothills; uncommon. Usually feeds low, often at banks of flowers along edges and roadsides. Feeding flight is usually quick and hard to follow. Best identified by small size, big white spot behind eye, and rather liquid twittering call (similar to Stripe-tailed Hummingbird, which occurs in the same areas but looks quite different).
Ethiopian Boubou
Laniarius aethiopicus
A chunky black-and-white bushshrike. There is a white patch at the shoulder and the underparts are white with a pinkish tinge. Inhabits woodland, lush savanna, cultivation, and scrub. Found in pairs. Typically skulky, but occasionally hops about in the open. Similar to Black-backed Puffback, but much larger. Song is a synchronized duet in which the male gives a hollow rising whistle and the female gives a low ratcheting sound.
