Pink-footed Puffback

Dryoscopus angolensis

Small bushshrike in which males and females are very different. Males are mostly black and gray, with white on the throat. Females are brown on the back, gray on the head, and buff below. Found in mountain and hill forest. Sometimes joins mixed-species flocks. The most common vocalization is a rising “cheeeu,” but also gives scolding and ratcheting calls. Somewhat similar to Sabine’s Puffback, but males separated by the gray rump and underparts, and females separated by their smaller size and less rufous coloration.

Tawny-backed Fantail

Tawny-backed Fantail

Rhipidura superflua

A small brown songbird with a long tail that is often cocked and regularly fanned. Rich rufous on the back and rump, with a contrastingly darker pale-tipped tail. Has a brown head with a buff brow, a white throat bordered with a black necklace, and pale buff underparts. Singles and pairs can be found in forest in the foothills and mountains, often within mixed-species flocks. Distinctive in its limited range on Buru, where it is the only brown-backed fantail. Song a high-pitched series of six or more descending whistles. Call is a metallic “tew.”

White-rumped Swift

White-rumped Swift

Apus caffer

Small, lithe swift with a long and deeply forked tail that is often held closed, and long and slender wings. Note the pale tips to the inner part of the trailing wing in flight. The dark body contrasts strongly with the narrow white rump and throat. Mostly quiet. Breeds in old Red-rumped Swallow nests.

Ashy Tailorbird

Ashy Tailorbird

Orthotomus ruficeps

Small, active, gray bird with a long bill and a dark-tipped, frequently-cocked-up tail. Orange face diagnostic within its range. Males are gray-throated, whereas females have white throats. Common in mangroves, but also frequently encountered in edge, open forest, and other secondary growth. Generally quite tolerant of human habitation and can be found in parks and on roadsides. Song is crisp and bright: a repeated “twoo-lip, twoo-lip” or “chip-wee, chip-wee”. Calls are variable but frequently sound like isolated fragments of song.
