Yellow-throated Bush Sparrow
Gymnoris superciliaris
A large sparrow that is often identified mainly by its lack of distinguishing features! Does show a pale eyebrow and two pale wingbars. The yellow spot on the throat is difficult to see. Found in savanna and woodland, including miombo, often in small, loose groups. Call is a repeated “chyup”. Similar to Streaky-headed Seedeater but with a broader eyebrow and obvious wingbars. Separated from female sparrows by the more obvious pale eyebrow and lack of at least some rufous coloration on the back.

Golden-winged Sparrow
Arremon schlegeli
Beautiful black-helmeted sparrow of forest understory. Contrasting black head, bright yellow bill, white throat and underparts, light gray mantle, yellow-green back and rump, gray wings and tail, and golden shoulders. Female has duller bill and buff-tinged underparts. Found alone or in pairs foraging in the understory of dry to humid forest and scrubby second growth. Vocalization is a high pitched “zeut, zeut, zeee.” The only totally black headed sparrow in its range. Found only in Colombia and Venezuela.
Yellow-footed Flycatcher
Muscicapa sethsmithi
An aptly named flycatcher of the lower parts of the forest edge and forest clearings. Overall grayish with a white belly, a white throat, a uniform gray chest, a mostly yellow bill, and unique bright yellow legs. Similar to many other African flycatchers, but the yellow feet and bill set it apart. Call is a descending whistled “tzeer,” and song is a series of buzzy “dji-dji-dji-dji!” notes.
Hook-billed Hermit
Glaucis dohrnii
A range-restricted hermit with a gently curved bill. Dark green above and rusty below, with a prominent broad white eyebrow and a greenish tail with a white tip. Found in humid forests, where it forages in the understory, favoring Heliconia plants. The similar Rufous-breasted Hermit has a more strongly curved bill and a bronzy tail with a white tip.
