Manus Brush Cuckoo
Cacomantis blandus
Endemic to the Admiralty Islands off northeastern New Guinea (Manus being the largest of these islands), this smallish-medium cuckoo is the only one in its range. Light gray head and upper chest with buff-orange underparts. Inhabits forests and forest edges, including coastal scrub and villages. Song is a loud, piercing series of short, trilled whistles that slowly descends in pitch: “PIIR, PIIR, PIir, Piir, piir.”

Emerald Tanager
Tangara florida
Well-named tanager, mostly emerald-green with trapezoidal black cheek patch, back streaking and wing markings. Small and active, usually found in pairs following mixed feeding flocks in foothill forests and edges. Feeds on fruit. Sexes alike.
Chinchipe Spinetail
Synallaxis chinchipensis
Handsome spinetail restricted to the Marañon Valley in northwestern Peru. Note spotted breast sides, indistinct pale eyebrow, and chestnut wings and tail. Pairs stay fairly low in deciduous forest and scrub, often skulky and difficult to see. Listen for fast sputtering trills.
Green-backed Flycatcher
Ficedula elisae
A colorful, green-suffused flycatcher. Adult male looks like a faded version of a male Narcissus Flycatcher, with bright yellow eyebrows and underparts; greenish tinge to the upperparts is distinctive and unmistakable. Overall paler and less contrasting patterning, combined with prominent dark eyes, conveys a gentle appearance. Female very similar to female Narcissus, but has a faded-yellow belly and a green-tinged head and back; brighter female Narcissus Flycatchers can have a green tinge, too, but it is usually weaker and restricted to the upper half of the back. Breeds in hilly and submontane mixed broadleaf forests, and winters in open forests and forest edges. Song is a rambling series of somewhat scratchy-sounding warbling notes.
