Olive-green Tyrannulet

Phylloscartes virescens

Small, uncommon flycatcher of rainforest canopy. Plain, inconspicuous, and unobtrusive; occurs in tall forest, especially on sandy soils, and may also be found in shorter-stature forest on similar soil types. Almost always seen with mixed-species flocks, and usually from below, whereby it is best distinguished from other small flycatchers by longish bill and (especially) long tail held slightly cocked. If seen from above, note long-tailed shape and bold wing bars. Feeds actively on insects taken in short sallies to leaf clusters. Easily-overlooked call is a sharp, inflected squeak, often run into an erratic series. More active and narrower-billed than Gray-crowned and Yellow-margined flycatchers, which have similar shape and posture and often occur with it in flocks.

White-tailed Tropicbird

White-tailed Tropicbird

Phaethon lepturus

A medium-sized white seabird with black marks on the wings and a yellow beak. The long white tail streamers are visible from a great distance. Nests on coastal and inland cliffs on the main islands. Often seen flying over canyons and along cliffs. At sea usually flies high above the water. Calls are loud clucks and squawks. Smaller and more graceful in flight than Red-tailed Tropicbird.

Salvadori's Pheasant

Salvadori's Pheasant

Lophura inornata

Chunky pheasant endemic to Sumatra’s highlands and foothills. Male is dark iridescent blue, while the female is warm brown with a dark tail. Both sexes have short tails, bright red patches of bare facial skin, and pale bills with a faint hook. Forages quietly on the forest floor, typically singly, sometimes in pairs. Generally fairly quiet; deep “bwoop” contact calls sometimes given, and males give a wing-whirring display that can be audible at close range.

Yellow-browed Antbird

Yellow-browed Antbird

Hypocnemis hypoxantha

Rather small antbird with a disjunct distribution. Males have a yellow face and underparts with a black crown, eye-line, and streaks on the breast. Females have a yellow streaked crown.  Southeastern subspecies has ochraceous lower underparts. Song is a descending and decelerating series of fluted notes becoming harsher at the end. Found in the understory of humid forests, often in areas of transitional forest or poor soils. Rarely accompanies mixed-species flocks. The similar Spix's and Peruvian Warbling-Antbirds have white breasts, and the song of Peruvian is somewhat slower-paced.
