Biak White-eye
Zosterops mysorensis
A small bird of forest on Biak Island where it is the only white-eye. Olive-green head and back, yellow under the base of the tail, dark gray face, pale gray underparts with whitish throat and belly. Note the lack of an eye-ring. Sometimes associates with other small birds. Similar size to Island Leaf-Warbler and Biak Gerygone, but Biak White-eye has grayish rather than yellow underparts. Voice, an up-and-down, high-pitch, warbling song and a rather sharp, descending “meuu” call.

Chestnut-backed Sparrow-Weaver
Plocepasser rufoscapulatus
Large and distinctive weaver. Note the pale bill, bold head pattern, rufous back, and white wingbars. Found locally in miombo broadleaf woodland. Quiet and inconspicuous bird that feeds on the ground but often perches up in trees. The most common vocalization is a loose, metallic trill. Somewhat like White-browed Sparrow-Weaver, but easily separated by pale bill, striped head pattern, and rufous back.
Striolated Manakin
Machaeropterus striolatus
Chunky little, short-tailed bird of lowland and foothill forest. Male is distinctive with bright red crown and bold white stripes on reddish belly. Female lacks red crown but shows faint streaking on sides unlike any other manakin. Inconspicuous; elaborate display dance infrequently seen. Found in the lower to middle levels of forest. Listen for its high-pitched, quiet, whistled “ch-peew” song across much of range.
Cape Verde Sparrow
Passer iagoensis
Found only on Cape Verde islands. Male is unmistakable with a chestnut eyebrow extending down to the sides of the neck, a small dark bib, rich chestnut shoulders and scapulars. Female has a warm buff eyebrow. Breeds in dry open habitats, but also in towns and villages. Calls are similar to that of House Sparrow.
