Dull-blue Flycatcher
Eumyias sordidus
Largely all-blue flycatcher, with blue becoming intense on the forehead. Also note black face and pale, grayish belly. A bird of Sri Lanka’s hills and mountains, where it occurs as singles and pairs in the understory of dense, wet montane forest. Told from other largely blue songbirds, such as Tickell’s Blue Flycatcher and Black-naped Monarch, by combination of pale grayish belly and bold black marking between the bill and the eyes. Song comprises structured verses of rising and falling warbling notes, “chee-choo-choo-chewee-wee”. Also gives some short “chip” calls.

Artamus mentalis
A thick-bodied, highly aerobatic bird, white below and dark above with a dark chin and white cheek. Often perches on wires. Bill pale bluish with a dark tip. No similar species within its range. Found in open or forest-edge habitats. Common call is a rapid metallic “wit-wit-wit.”
Rufous-tailed Flatbill
Ramphotrigon ruficauda
Smallish flycatcher, characteristic of forests on sandy soils and seasonally flooded forests. Heard more often than seen. Best told by bright rufous tail and flight feather edges contrasting with greenish-brown body. Singles or pairs inhabit the mid-story of tall forest and typically do not associate with other species. Sits upright and sallies to foliage for insects. In western Amazonia, told from Dusky-tailed Flatbill by clearer (less mottled) breast and extensive rufous in wings and tail. Voice is a single, lazy whistle, with characteristic strong inflection in the middle.
White-throated Robin
Irania gutturalis
Large, long-billed robin that spends much of its time on the ground with tail cocked. The male has bluish upperparts, a dark face, a white supercilium, a broad black tail, and bright orange underparts. The female has gray underparts, a faintly mottled breast, a whitish throat, and orange sides. Breeds on high-altitude mountain slopes covered with dense scrub. On migration shows up in a variety of scrubby habitats. Calls similar to nightingales, including clear whistles and a low croak.
