Pacific Flatbill

Rhynchocyclus pacificus

Shy and inconspicuous flycatcher of lowland and foothill rainforest in western Colombia and northwestern Ecuador. Plumage is mostly olive with yellowish streaks on underparts, gray eyering, and brown patches in wings. Bill is very wide at the base, though this may not be evident when the bird is seen from the side. Similar to Fulvous-breasted Flatbill, but Pacific lacks tawny breast and is usually found at lower elevations. Also similar to Olivaceous Flatbill, but has brown (not yellow) in the wings. Typically found alone or in pairs at fairly low levels inside the forest, and sometimes joins mixed-species flocks.

Brown-headed Parrot

Brown-headed Parrot

Poicephalus cryptoxanthus

A medium-sized green parrot with diagnostic pale eyes, a bicolored (dark and pale) bill, and extensive yellow on the underwings in flight. Pairs breed in arid and open broadleaf woodland, riverine forest, and cultivation. The species can be locally nomadic, attracted in large groups to seeds, nuts, and fruit, attracting attention to itself with loud screeching and high-pitched metallic calls. The similar Brown-necked Parrot is much larger than Brown-headed Parrot, and is told apart by its green underwings, massive all-pale bill, and red shoulder patches and boots. Meyer’s Parrot has a brown back and yellow shoulders.

Canada Warbler

Canada Warbler

Cardellina canadensis

Spiffy warbler found in boggy areas. Blue-gray above and yellow below with distinctive yellow spectacles and necklace of black streaks. Legs are pale orange. Females show fainter necklace than males. Typically found in low vegetation, especially wet woods and thickets. Nests on the ground. Feeds on insects. One of the longest-distance migrant warblers; winters in South America.

Red-eyed Vireo

Red-eyed Vireo

Vireo olivaceus

Plain olive-green above and whitish below with no wingbars. Red eye of adults is not always easy to see; immatures have brown eyes. Dark stripe through and above eye. Larger and thicker-billed than warblers. Breeds in mature deciduous forest. Often sings nearly nonstop throughout the day; listen for repetitive musical phrases coming from the treetops. Often with flocks of chickadees and warblers during migration. Winters in South America, where it could be confused with the very similar Chivi Vireo, from which it is best distinguished by voice.
