Thick-billed Seedeater
Crithagra burtoni
Large brown seedeater with two pale wingbars and a big, bulging bill. Varies geographically in the amount of streaking on the crown and underparts and the presence or absence of a pale forehead patch. Found in montane habitats including forest, forest edge, bamboo, and scrub. Generally inconspicuous, but will perch up to sing. The call is a high, thin “tsreep-tseet,” and the song is a complex and exuberant jumble of whistled and rattling notes. Somewhat similar to Streaky Seedeater, but larger and heavier-billed, with a much darker and less patterned head.

Barbados Bullfinch
Loxigilla barbadensis
A tame and conspicuous species of gardens, scrubland, and open woodlands. Its plumage is a combination of subtle browns and grays, and its bill is stubby and thick. This species could be mistaken for a female Black-faced Grassquit, but the grassquit has an olive back and is smaller overall. Song is a rapid “tsee-tsee-tsee-tsee…” or “tsit-tsit-tsit-tsit…” often consisting of five to fifteen notes. Calls include a sharp “tseet.”
Black-capped Antwren
Herpsilochmus atricapillus
Small, long-tailed antwren of the middle to upper levels of woodlands and dry forests. Males are gray with a contrasting black cap and eyebrow. The tail is black and white-tipped and the wings are black with white bars. In females note the cinnamon forehead, gray back and buff belly. The song is loud and usually given as a duet.
Vigors's Sunbird
Aethopyga vigorsii
This medium-sized sunbird of the Western Ghats is similar in appearance to Crimson Sunbird, but the two ranges do not overlap. Male is bright red with a gray belly and iridescent blue-green tail and head markings. Female is dull gray overall with a paler belly. Young males are similarly dull, but often have dull red patches, particularly on the breast. Forages actively in small flocks in upper levels of foothill forest and forest edge. Squeaky song and high “seep” calls comparable to Crimson Sunbird.
