Isabela Oriole

An entirely black pigeon with intricately white-edged wing feathers and red feet. Occurs mostly in undisturbed old-growth hill forest. In flight, resembles Metallic Pigeon and Yellow-legged Pigeon, but lacks the white throat of the former, and has pink legs and an entirely dark head, unlike the latter. Rarely heard, but has been known to utter deep booming sounds.

A very colorful bowerbird of foothill and lower montane forests. Male is bright orange and yellow with a black face, edge to the wing and tail. Female has yellow underparts and a brown back with brown scaling on the chest. Forages for fruit in the canopy but perches out in the early morning. Golden Myna is superficially similar, although the male Masked Bowerbird lacks the black back and belly. Call, a loud rasping note that sounds rather like a taser.

The largest nuthatch in the world, about the size of a bulbul. Coloration similar to many other nuthatches: gray above and white below, with a thick black line through the eye. Picky in its habitat preferences and as a result generally uncommon or absent through much of its range; requires extensive stands of mature tall pines in foothills and montane regions. Can be quite loud, giving a hoarse chatter reminiscent of a corvid; also gives a clipped fluty whistle.
