Wing-banded Hornero
Furnarius figulus
Medium-sized ovenbird that is usually seen walking on the ground close to water bodies and marshy areas, but it is also found in pastures and even gardens. Rufous above and buff below with a conspicuous white eyebrow and brown mask. Similar to Pale-legged Hornero, but has a dark (not pinkish) legs. The song is a loud series of up to 30 “djip-djip” notes, often delivered as a duet.
识别特征
The band-tailed hornero is 15 to 16 cm (5.9 to 6.3 in) long and weighs about 28 g (0.99 oz). It is a small hornero with a long and nearly straight bill. The sexes' plumages are alike. Adults of the nominate subspecies have a wide white supercilium, dingy rufous lores, a dark stripe through the eye, dull rufous ear coverts, and a tawny buff malar area. Their crown is chestnut-rufous and their back, rump, and uppertail coverts a slightly paler chestnut-rufous. Their tail is also chestnut-rufous, with brownish black tips on the inner webs of its feathers. Their wing coverts and secondaries are rufous and their primaries fuscous with two dark rufous bands. Their throat is whitish that becomes pale tawny-brown on the rest of their underparts but for a whitish center to the belly and almost white undertail coverts. Their iris is brown, their bill brownish, and their legs and feet also brownish. Subspecies F. f. pileatus has much a darker brown crown and ear coverts and more black on the tail than the nominate.

分布与栖息地
The two subspecies of the band-tailed hornero have widely separated ranges within Brazil. F. f. pileatus is found along the Amazon River from eastern Amazonas to central Pará and south along the Araguaia and Tocantins rivers through Tocantins and eastern Mato Grosso into Goiás. F. f. figulus is found in eastern Brazil from Maranhão east to the Atlantic and south into Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo states. Its expansion into these last two states from Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais had begun by the 1980s.<p>The band-tailed hornero inhabits a variety of landscapes, most of which are semi-open to open. These include woodlands, scrublands in deforested areas, pastures, the edges of marshes, and urban and suburban gardens and parks. It is usually found near water, especially rivers. In most of its range it occurs below 600 m (2,000 ft) of elevation though it reaches 900 m (3,000 ft) in a few areas and has been recorded at 1,250 m (4,100 ft) in Minas Gerais.

Nashville Warbler
Leiothlypis ruficapilla
Small warbler with sharply pointed bill. Look for gray head, white eyering, yellow underparts (including throat), and olive upperparts. Sometimes pumps tail. Two disjunct breeding populations are very similar in appearance. Breeds in coniferous or mixed forests, often near clearings, second-growth, or bogs. In migration and winter, tends to be found in patchy woodland or brushy areas, including field edges and thickets. Winters primarily in Mexico. Listen for its loud chipping song, broken into two parts. Compare dull immature Nashville with Virginia’s Warbler; Nashvilles always have greenish wings. Also sometimes mistaken for larger gray-headed warblers like Mourning or Connecticut, but Nashville is much smaller, shorter-tailed, and sharper-billed.
Black-crested Tit-Tyrant
Anairetes nigrocristatus
Beautiful little flycatcher with a spiky crest found in the Andes of northern Peru, just barely reaching over the border into southern Ecuador. Male is quite distinctive with a solid black face, black-and-white streaking, and a long crest that sticks up in front of its white crown. Female and immature are grayer with less contrasting plumage and shorter crest; the orange bill might lead to confusion with Yellow-billed Tit-Tyrant, but Black-crested lacks brown on the back and yellow on the belly. Very similar to Pied-crested Tit-Tyrant, but Black-crested has broader white tips to the tail; also note its more northern range. Inhabits scrub and light woodland, often giving squeaks and rapid trills.
Rio Orinoco Spinetail
Synallaxis beverlyae
A grayish riverine spinetail with rufous crown and shoulders. Known from only a few sites but locally common, alone or in pairs, mostly in young riverine successional vegetation (especially dense scrub) on sedimentary islands in the Orinoco River. Sexes similar. Easy to find by voice, a rattling series “quip, pip-pip-pip-pip” ending in a trill “prrr”. Very similar to Pale-breasted Spinetail, but differs in grayish body, less contrasting rufous patches, different voice, and river island specialization. Endemic to the Orinoco River of Venezuela.
