Black-backed Fruit-Dove

Ptilinopus cinctus

A large, striking fruit-dove with blackish upperparts and pale underparts crossed by a diagnostic black breast band. Pale coloration of underparts varies through range, but breast band is always distinct. Juveniles have a speckled head and yellow fringes to upperparts feathers. Found in forests and wooded areas from lowlands to mountains; generally more abundant in the hills. Usually found singly or in pairs within the upper levels of the trees. Song is a short, deep “woo-oo,” rising at the start, falling at the end.

Scaled Metaltail

Scaled Metaltail

Metallura aeneocauda

Small, dark green hummingbird with a short, straight bill. Found at the edges of elfin forest and in humid shrublands above the treeline. Male has an iridescent green throat patch; females lack the throat patch and are duller below, with brownish underparts. Males have a more bronzy, scaled throat and breast and a greener tail than the similar Tyrian Metaltail; female Scaled Metaltails are darker below than that species, without a strong orangey-buff coloration on the throat and breast.

White-tufted Grebe

White-tufted Grebe

Rollandia rolland

Widespread and often fairly common small dark grebe of lakes, ponds, wetlands; also river mouths and coastal waters, mainly in winter. Like all grebes dives well and can stay underwater for a long time. No similar species in range. Handsome breeding birds have a bold white “fan” on the sides of the head. Immature and nonbreeding birds have a dark cap and a streaked whitish face. Falkland population is larger and blacker, and is likely a different species.

Scaly Chatterer

Scaly Chatterer

Argya aylmeri

An unusual slim babbler with a very long tail. Paler than most other babblers in range, gray-brown overall with scaling on the breast, a yellowish bill, and pale blue bare skin around the eye. Found in areas of dense undergrowth within dry thorn savanna and thorn scrub, almost always in small groups. Somewhat similar to other babblers, especially Rufous Chatterer, but much paler and generally found in drier habitat. An inconspicuous and skulking bird that is usually detected by call: quiet, high-pitched “tsit” notes that sound like a dry twig scraping on a windowpane.
