Chestnut-fronted Helmetshrike
Prionops scopifrons
A gregarious mostly dark-gray helmetshrike. Note the piercing orange eye, blue eye wattles, chestnut forehead patch, red legs, and orange bill. Small to medium-sized flocks inhabit coastal forest and lush woodland. Often in mixed flocks, most often with Retz’s Helmetshrike. Vocalizations include tearing notes, croaks, and bill snaps. Similar to Retz’s Helmetshrike, but easily separated by the chestnut forehead and blue rather than red eye wattles.

Andean Siskin
Spinus spinescens
This yellowish finch is found in the Andes from Venezuela to Ecuador. It is duller yellow than many other siskins. Look for the male’s black cap and bright yellow wing patch. Females looks similar to males in the southern population; females in northern population lack black cap. Usually found in small flocks at forest edge, scrubby habitats, and paramo. Occurs from 1,800-3,700m. Can form mixed flocks with Hooded Siskins.
Scrub Euphonia
Euphonia affinis
Tiny finch of tropical lowlands and foothills, especially in drier areas. Occurs from eastern Mexico to Costa Rica, where it is found in open woodland, forest edge, and clearings with trees. Usually in pairs, sometimes small groups that associate readily with other euphonias, especially when feeding at mistletoe. Male has black head and throat with yellow forehead patch; female rather drab, but lacks vested appearance of female Yellow-throated Euphonia, which is slightly larger.
