Rufous-bellied Kookaburra
Dacelo gaudichaud
A distinctive large kingfisher of lowland forest. Black cap, white collar, blue wing and rump, and rufous belly. Found in the understorey where it scans for its prey of lizards and insects. Superficially similar to the much rarer Shovel-billed Kookaburra, but Rufous-bellied Kookaburra has a blue rather than brown wing, and a longer, paler bill. Several different vocalizations. Call, a repeated, harsh, loud “rek!” note given while flicking its tail slightly; and a hollow rolling call given whilst lifting its tail right up.

Pink-throated Becard
Pachyramphus minor
Becard of humid forest with a dark gray male and orange-brown female. Males are slate gray with a pink throat; females are orange-brown with a gray cap extending to the back of the neck. Found singly or in pairs in the midstory and canopy of mature rainforest, where frequently joins mixed species flocks of tanagers, nunbirds, and other midstory and canopy birds.
Giant Coot
Fulica gigantea
Distinctive huge coot of lakes and bogs in high Andes. Often seen standing along shorelines or on big weed-matted nest mounds. Note the colorful bill, long red legs, and huge feet. Prolonged nesting season means that all stages of nesting and young can be seen together, from small fuzzy black chicks to full-sized juveniles, which are pale grayish with a frosty whitish head and neck. Often rather aggressive. Loud clucking and purring songs carry well and are given frequently.
Little Woodswallow
Artamus minor
Chunky bird with broad, triangular wings and short, decurved bill. Dark brownish-gray plumage, lacking white in primaries (compare larger Dusky Woodswallow). Tail black with white tip broken by black at the center. Grayish underwings contrast with dark belly in flight, though not to the degree seen in other woodswallows. Usually in small flocks, foraging high above rocky cliffs and gorges, or huddled together when perched.
