Sao Tome Oriole
Oriolus crassirostris
Old World oriole that is unusual in nearly lacking yellow in its plumage. There is a dark hood which is solid in males and streaky in females. A small white mark on the wing and pale yellow marks in the outer tail can be conspicuous in flight. Found in the canopy of rainforest at low and middle elevations. Song is a series of slurred, low-pitched liquid whistles. Calls include a harsh, upslurred nasal scold. Easily identified, as it is the only oriole on the island of Sao Tome.

Rockrunner
Achaetops pycnopygius
A very unusual large and chunky warbler with a white eyebrow and throat, streaked breast, and rufous belly. Found on and around rocks within arid savanna. Usually seen singly or in pairs. Can be skulky and inconspicuous, though sometimes sits out and sings from the top of big rocks. The beautiful song is an accelerating and descending series of warbles. The call is a harsh ratchet. Difficult to confuse with any other species within its small range.
