Black Hornbill
Anthracoceros malayanus
Sooty black bird with a large, heavy bill that is bone-white in males, dark in females. Some males have a bright white eyebrow, while others have an entirely black head. Females have reddish skin around the eye and a weaker, paler eyebrow stripe. Inhabits lowland mature forests. Travels singly, in pairs, or in small flocks, typically at lower levels in the forest than the large hornbills. Gives distinctly un-birdlike growling calls.

Arnot's Chat
Myrmecocichla arnotti
Chunky black chat with a huge white wing patch. The male has a white cap, and the female a messy white throat patch. Found mainly in miombo and mopane broadleaved woodland, and locally in bushy country and villages. Exuberant song is a fast series of clucks, whistles, and rattles. There is little range overlap with other black chats.
Himalayan Owl
Strix nivicolum
A medium-sized brownish owl of montane forests, generally uncommon. Brownish overall with finely patterned underparts. Deep black eyes bracketed by bright white arcs impart a learned, severe expression. Asian counterpart to Europe's Tawny Owl. Calls loudly and slowly, a repeated pair of hoots.
Shelley's Oliveback
Nesocharis shelleyi
A unique, beautiful finch of forest, forest edge, and farmlands, found only in the highlands of Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, and extreme southwest Nigeria. Surprisingly compact, with a short, stubby tail and a thick bluish bill. Shows a black head, a yellow-green back and wings, and gray undersides. Males also have a yellow-green chest. Feeds acrobatically on small branches, ferns, and other vegetation in the understory and sometimes higher, alone or in small groups. Calls are high pitched “siew” notes, and the song is a sequence of high-pitched buzzy notes.
