Oriole Cuckooshrike
Lobotos oriolinus
A spectacular cuckooshrike that resembles an oriole, with a yellow-green back, wings and tail, yellow underparts, a dark head and bill, and large fleshy orange wattles under the eyes. The sexes differ slightly: the head of the male is jet black and the female has a less contrasting brownish head. Juvenile is like the female but barred above, with a less distinct head pattern. Rare, found singly or in pairs in the canopy of primary and secondary lowland forest, often near water. Moves stealthily through the canopy, where it joins mixed-species parties; flight call is a thrush-like “tsik.” Differs from forest orioles by having a dark (not red) bill and fleshy wattles under the eyes.

Indochinese Barbet
Psilopogon annamensis
Loud but sluggish and difficult-to-see canopy inhabitant of the Annamite highlands in western Vietnam, eastern Laos, and far eastern Cambodia. Green with an electric-blue face, pale yellow crown and throat, and thick black eyebrows. Also note heavy dark bill with long bristles at the base. More often heard than seen; listen for its long, unending series of hollow-sounding notes. Like many other barbets, it can be difficult to locate when singing; more readily seen at fruiting trees. Formerly considered a subspecies of Black-browed Barbet.
Seaside Cinclodes
Cinclodes nigrofumosus
Restricted to the rocky coastline of northern and central Chile, where it is rarely seen far from crashing waves; also ranges to adjacent sandy beaches at river mouths. Usually seen as singles or pairs, foraging in the intertidal zone, or singing with wings raised and fluttered from seaside rocks. Largest cinclodes in Chile and identified by very narrow whitish eyebrow, bold white breast streaking, and rather stout bill, which it uses to smash open small crabs. Other cinclodes occur alongside Seaside Cinclodes mainly in winter.
Bismarck Honeyeater
Vosea whitemanensis
A relatively distinctive honeyeater, olive-brown overall with a darker cast to the face and obvious pale bare skin surrounding and extending slightly behind the eye. Bill is long and conspicuously downturned. Found in primary montane forest, forest edge, and occasionally gardens above 900 meters of elevation. Voice is reportedly a sequence of 3-8 soft whistled 2-syllabled notes, but little known.
