Chestnut-colored Woodpecker
Celeus castaneus
Attractive, medium-sized crested woodpecker of humid tropical lowlands. Uncommon in evergreen forest and edge ranging into adjacent clearings with taller trees. Forages mainly at middle to upper levels, where often quite inconspicuous. Both sexes bright chestnut-brown overall with blond, shaggy, slightly wobbly crest. Male has big red mustache.
White-crowned Cuckoo
Caliechthrus leucolophus
A large cuckoo of lowland and hill forest. All black apart from white crown stripe and some pale edged undertail feathers. Vocal but difficult to see. The usual call, a series of 4 clear, rapid notes “wiwiwiwip”. The white crown strip separates it from any other medium-sized black birds. If the white crown is not seen, can look similar to male Pacific Koel, but note White-crowned’s black rather than pale bill.
Sumba Flowerpecker
Dicaeum wilhelminae
Small and stout forest-dweller that hops and buzzes about in the canopy like a large, active insect. Note male’s iridescent dark blue back, bright red chest, and black line extending down the white belly. As with many other flowerpeckers, the female is considerably duller, with a red rump patch being the only patch of bright color on her otherwise gray-brown plumage. Endemic to Sumba, where found in wooded habitats throughout the island. Gives a short, descending series of whistles, as well as piercing high-pitched notes.
