Pale-eyed Bulbul
Pycnonotus davisoni
Distinctive bulbul endemic to the Irrawaddy River delta in southern Myanmar. Note namesake white irises, as well as the yellow facial stripes. Gray-brown body contrasts with olive wings and bright yellow vent. Inhabits lowland evergreen broadleaf and swamp forests in its restricted range. Formerly treated as the same species as Stripe-faced Bulbul (under “Stripe-throated Bulbul”), with which it overlaps in far southeastern Myanmar; note present species’ pale eyes and darker body. Song is throaty and melodious.
识别特征
The pale-eyed bulbul grows to a length of about 20 cm (8 in). The plumage of both sexes is predominantly dull brown with the exception of the forehead, ear coverts, throat and upper breast which are boldly streaked with yellow. The leading edges of the wings and the outer tail feathers are yellowish, the lower breast and belly are streaked with white, and the area around the vent is yellow. Juveniles are similar to adults but the yellow-colouring is more muted. The song is a rather variable loud, clear sequence of throaty notes.

The pale-eyed bulbul is omnivorous, foraging for berries and fruits including banyans and Ficus triangularis, and supplementing these with insects which it takes on the wing or on the ground. Breeding takes place between February and September in Malaysia, the nest being cup-shaped, deep and carefully made.

Pacific Tuftedcheek
Pseudocolaptes johnsoni
Handsome arboreal bird restricted to wet cloud forest in the western Andes. Its conspicuous neck tufts are often tinged with buff and can be flared out if the bird is excited or agitated. Similar to Streaked Tuftedcheek, but neck markings are usually tinged buffy (not pure white) and appear more like discreet patches rather than a single, unbroken scarf. Also note its darker chestnut plumage and unstreaked back. Probes epiphytes or clumps of moss high up in large trees, and often accompanies mixed species flocks. Song is a rattle followed by a thin, descending whistle, and is often preceded by a series of sharp, metallic chip notes. Formerly considered a subspecies of Buffy Tuftedcheek.

Gentoo Penguin
Pygoscelis papua
Attractive, medium-sized penguin that is rarely seen away from well-known colony sites. Appearance is distinctive with white “headphones” and a lipstick-orange bill unlike any other penguin. Striking head and bill pattern also make it one of the easiest penguins to identify when seen swimming at sea. Nests in small colonies and occurs around King and Magellanic Penguins in northern areas of its range, as on the Falklands.

Scaly-crowned Babbler
Malacopteron cinereum
Small, dull, brownish babbler. Pale underparts. Faintly scaled crown is orangish and sets it apart from the dark-crowned but otherwise fairly similar Sooty-capped Babbler. Birds north of the Malay Peninsula and southern Thailand have a bicolored crown, with chestnut on the front half and dark on the back. Inhabits lowland and foothill forests, often in wet areas. Forages in noisy flocks, giving rapid-fire series of ticking notes.
