Benguet Bush Warbler
Locustella seebohmi
A fairly small, slender bird of lower montane grassy valleys. Warm brown above and on the belly, with a white throat and a faintly streaked grayish chest. Note indistinct pale brow and pale barring across the base of the undertail. Very skulking. Similar to Long-tailed Bush-Warbler, but has shorter tail and grayish rather than deep brown underparts. Also similar to Philippine Bush-Warbler but with less distinct pale eyebrow. Song is a sequence of piercing and grating ringing notes repeated at regular intervals.

分布与栖息地
It is found to steep grass valleys in montane areas from 800 to 1,800 meters above sea level. It appears to be limited to drier areas, and has been found in areas both with or without pine trees. Little else is known about this bird. <p>IUCN has assessed this bird as least-concern with the population believed to be stable.<p>There is a need for surveys to determine whether this species is rare and possibly threatened or whether it is just widely overlooked. Studies of its habitat associations and tolerance of degraded areas are needed.

McKay's Bunting
Plectrophenax hyperboreus
Rare white snowball shrouded in mystery. Nonbreeding birds have buffy fringes to head and back feathers that wear to white by spring. Breeding males almost pure white except for limited black in wings. Breeding females have dark streaking on back. Breeds almost exclusively on St. Matthew Island in the Bering Sea; winters on the coast of western Alaska. Very similar to Snow Bunting but paler, usually with white rump; intermediate birds may be hybrids.
Red-legged Tinamou
Crypturellus erythropus
Shy, fowl-like bird of open forest and scrubby areas; heard far more often than seen. Best identified by habitat and voice. Red legs are diagnostic. Forages alone or in pairs on ground in scrubby forests on sandy soils, walking slowly to pick up fruit, seeds and insects; does not gather in flocks. Haunting song is a slow, rising series of 2–3 notes; it is similar to that of Undulated Tinamou but typically has fewer notes and lacks a strongly upslurred final note.
Siberian Sand-Plover
Anarhynchus mongolus
Medium-sized plover with a pale throat, brown back, and white belly. Breeding adults have a black mask, white forehead, and a bright orange chest and neck; males average brighter than females. Non-breeding and immature birds are brownish above and white below, with a variable white forehead and eyebrow. Compare with slightly larger Greater Sand-Plover; Siberian is proportionally smaller-headed and darker-legged, and its shorter bill has a slight bulge at the tip. Smaller Kentish Plover can be similar in non-breeding plumage; Siberian is taller and longer-legged, without Kentish’s strong white neck band. Very difficult to distinguish from Tibetan Sand-Plover, especially nonbreeding and immature birds, though identification can often be presumed by range. In breeding plumage, note the less extensive black mask of Siberian, usually with a white spot on the forehead. In nonbreeding plumage, look for a generally stronger breast band and faint brown markings on the flanks in Siberian. In areas of overlap many birds best left unidentified. Breeds mainly in Russian Far East; winters on coastal mudflats and beaches from Taiwan to Australia.
