Island Leaf Warbler

A medium-sized, gray-brown warbler that looks very similar to other species. Note the rather stout bill and broad dark tail. Smaller and browner than Olive-tree Warbler and larger than Eastern Olivaceous Warbler. Wing panel is not as prominent as that of Olive-tree Warbler. Breeds on scrubby hillsides and river valleys; occasionally in flatter lowlands. During non-breeding season, found in a variety of wooded or brushy habitats. Sings from prominent perches—a repetitive, rapid mix of musical and scratchy phrases. Call is a harsh "chak."

A chunky, mid-sized, remarkably drab babbler. Most birds show some darker scaling on the breast, though this is difficult to see without a good view. Found in the understory of rainforest at low and middle elevations. Shy and skulking; rarely seen unless searched for. Very similar to other illadopsises, and most readily distinguished by voice, though scaly-breasted birds are distinctive. Most often detected by voice. The distinctive song is far less variable than that of many other illadopsis species. It consists of one or two introductory “tek” notes followed by three or four whistles in a rising pattern, often repeated for long periods. 

Large, elegant hummingbird with a short straight bill and black streaks below its eyes. Shining green above and brilliant white below. The tail is long and white with a black center. The male has glittering purple patch on the ear coverts, lacking in the female, and a green or white throat depending on the subspecies. Found in humid moist forest and forest edges.
