White-rumped Monjita

Dark, chunky barbet with an odd tuft of feathers on its forehead. The eye is pale in the eastern part of the range and dark in the west. Usually in small groups on and around dead trees in humid forest and secondary growth. The vocalizations include nasal “squeaky toy” calls, “peet” notes, and a dry rattle. Similar to Naked-faced and Bristle-nosed Barbets, but has a mostly feathered head and a dark bill. Sladen’s Barbet also has a dark bill, but Gray-throated is separated from that species by its feathered head.

Distinctive dark cockatoo with truly massive bill. Inhabits rainforests and woodlands of New Guinea and northern Cape York Peninsula. Large patch of bare red skin on the cheeks and a long black crest distinctive. Use sticks to "drum" on trees during territorial displays. In flight, note all-black tail (Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo has bright red tail panels). Voice a sharp whistle or squeak, lacking the mournful, drawn-out wailing quality of Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo.

A small bird of montane forest interior. Olive-green upperparts, yellow underparts, black bill and orange legs. Sallies for insects in the midstory but can also hop around flicking wings and fanning its tail. Somewhat similar to Yellow-legged Flycatcher and White-faced Robin, but Papuan Flycatcher occurs at higher elevation and lacks any white on the face or throat. Voice, a high-pitch, jumbled song or a simple “chip”.
