Marañon Tyrannulet
Nesotriccus maranonicus
Small, drab flycatcher with a limited range in southern Ecuador and northern Peru. It is mostly gray and brown, and may show faint yellow on the belly. Its round, crestless crown, pale eyestripe, and brown wingbars help to identify it. Very similar to Tumbes Tyrannulet (they were formerly considered to be the same species and called Mouse-colored Tyrannulet). Range is often the best way to separate them. Marañon Tyrannulet is found at higher elevations in the western Andes as well as interior valleys east of the continental divide. Voice is also helpful, as it often gives a rising, buzzy trill that sometimes ends in a sharp chirp. Inhabits dry and semi-humid forest and scrub.

Black-faced Spoonbill
Platalea minor
Large white waterbird with a long spatula-shaped bill. Breeding adults have long plumes on the head and a smudging of yellow on the chest. The extensive black facial skin distinguishes this species from the Eurasian Spoonbill, the only other spoonbill in range. Often gathers in large flocks, occasionally mixing with Eurasians. Forages in mudflats, estuaries, lakes, and large marshes, sieving out aquatic invertebrates from the water, often in a side-to-side motion.
White-fronted Bee-eater
Merops bullockoides
A bright and colorful bee-eater; the red throat and white line under the black face mask render it unmistakable. Pairs and groups inhabit woodland adjacent to watercourses, hillsides, and scrub, especially near earthen banks, where nesting colonies are formed by up to 450 individuals burrowing into the dirt. They have one of the most complex of all avian societies, featuring families, clans, and pirates! A nasal rolling “ngyaaau” is the main vocalization.
Red-billed Tropicbird
Phaethon aethereus
Spectacular seabird, very rarely seen from land but found locally around rocky islands near shore. Usually seen as single birds sitting on the sea or as pairs chasing and screeching around cliffs, often high overhead. Feeds by vertical plunge dives, which produce a plume of water like a mini whale blow. Adult has stout red bill and long white tail streamers. Immature has yellow bill and short, black-tipped tail.
