Buzzing Flowerpecker
Dicaeum hypoleucum
A tiny bird of forest and scrub from the lowlands to low elevations in the mountains. Darker above and paler below, with a fairly long, thin, slightly curved bill. Races differ in color. Northern birds have brownish bellies, while southern birds are black or dark brown above and whitish or pale gray below. Females are duller. Similar to Bicolored Flowerpecker, but White-bellied has a longer, thinner bill. Also known as Buzzing Flowerpecker, as it gives a high-pitched insect-like buzz.

Atoll Fruit-Dove
Ptilinopus coralensis
A colorful dove, mostly green with a yellow belly, green wings, a silver neck and chest, and in the male, a limited magenta forehead patch. Similar to Makatea Fruit-Dove, but with much more washed-out coloring and pink instead of dark legs. The two species are unlikely to be found on the same islands. Call is a rising and falling series of typical dove-like coos.
Rusty-cheeked Hornbill
Anorrhinus tickelli
Brownish, medium-sized hornbill. Male is dusty brown above and rusty-colored below, with a pale bill and blue-gray skin around the eye. Female is similarly patterned, but is duller overall, with a dark bill. Very similar to closely related Brown Hornbill, with which it overlaps in the far northern edge of its range; look for a darker brown throat in the male and a black (instead of white) bill in the female. Gives loud whistled screams.
Broad-tailed Hummingbird
Selasphorus platycercus
Common hummingbird of high elevations. Breeds in open woodland with meadows and scrub. In winter, found at lower elevations. Male is distinctive in range with beautiful rosy-red throat and glistening green upperparts. Female is duller with buffy sides and speckled throat. Note broadly rounded tail feathers with restricted rufous. Feeds on nectar and small insects. Visits feeders.
