Usambara Greenbul

Medium-sized, gray bird of tepui highlands. Male is unmistakable with pink collar and undertail coverts; female lacks pink collar. Generally occurs above 800 meters on tepui slopes, where it is an uncommon resident of the mid-story and canopy of tall forest; moves sluggishly and can be difficult to detect when not vocalizing. Feeds mainly on fruit, and is usually encountered alone but may associate with other species at fruiting trees. Most common vocalization is a single sharp rising whistled note, which may be lengthened and slurred downward, given at fairly long intervals. Size, shape and behavior recall Screaming Piha, which does not occur in tepui highlands.

Chunky small owl with a big rounded head. Note finely barred head, bright chestnut back and wings, and white underparts marked with long brown streaks. The only owlet on Java; shape and coloration eliminate any scops-owl. Unlike Collared Owlet, this is a primarily nocturnal species, only rarely remaining active through the day. Inhabits forest and forest edge from lowlands up into foothills. Song is a barbet-like series of trilling barks which accelerates rapidly before ending suddenly.

Bold, terrestrial bird of high Andean grasslands and pastures. Mostly brown with white throat, white eyebrows, and chestnut patches in the wings. Larger overall with a longer, thicker, and more curved bill than the otherwise similar Chestnut-winged Cinclodes. Feeds on the ground, darting back and forth while chasing prey; often rests on posts, rocks, tussocks, and other exposed perches. Song is a quick, rising trill.
