White-winged Apalis
Apalis chariessa
Spectacular, slender canopy warbler-like bird with a long and graduated white-tipped dark tail. Sexes look different: male has glossy-black upperparts and broad collar, yellow-orange belly, and distinctive white throat and wing panel. Female is duller, crown is gray and back is olive green, but distinctive wing patterning is consistent. Pairs are scarce and local residents in the canopy of low and mid-altitude forest, usually below 1600m. Sometimes joins mixed-species flocks. Calls a lively rollicking repeated up-and-down “tu-ree-du-lee”, for up to a minute at a time.

Rufous Gnateater
Conopophaga lineata
Small, compact bird with long legs and a short-tail. Found in the understory of dense humid forests and open woodlands. Note the rufous-orange face and breast, pale collar, olive-brown upperparts, and buffy belly. Males have a bold gray eyebrow which is duller in females, resembling Black-cheeked Gnateater, but with a bicolored bill.
Black-throated Hermit
Phaethornis atrimentalis
Small hummingbird with a long white-tipped tail. Its rufous underparts, green back, and striped face are features typical of many hermits, but the dark throat and white vent help separate it from other similar species. Inhabits rainforest understory in lowlands east of the Andes and in adjacent foothills. It is difficult to see well as it zips between flowers in the gloom. Sometimes gives a high-pitched, squeaky song from a low perch.
Ruddy Ground Dove
Columbina talpacoti
Small, well-named ruddy dove of humid open and semi-open areas, often in villages and even towns, where sometimes perches on wires. Often in groups, sometimes even a hundred birds, which flush explosively from underfoot. Male is ruddy overall (but much paler in West Mexico); female is plain grayish brown overall, lacking scaly breast of slightly smaller Common Ground Dove. Like other ground doves, both sexes of Ruddy show bright rusty wing patches in flight.
