Sulphur-bellied Tyrannulet
Mecocerculus minor
This uncommon tyrannulet is found in the Andes from extreme western Venezuela to Peru. Look for a combination of yellow underparts, white eyebrow, gray crown, and buffy wingbars. Like other members of its genus, tends to perch horizontally, which helps separate it from similarly-plumaged bristle-tyrants. Singles or pairs forage with mixed-species flock, usually in the canopy or subcanopy. Occurs in subtropical forests and edges from around 1,600 to 2,800 m. Listen for squeaky series of “chew” notes.

Vermiculated Fishing-Owl
Scotopelia bouvieri
A round-headed, gingery fishing-owl with heavily streaked underparts and a yellow beak. It is shy and day-roosts are well hidden in huge trees along rivers in lowland primary, swamp and flooded forests. The call is a deep low horn-like “hooooo”, and young birds sometimes emit an eerie screeching “wheeeuuu”. Similar Pel’s Fishing-Owl is larger and rustier (especially on the underparts) than Vermiculated Fishing-Owl, has a black (not yellow) beak, and is covered in spots, bars and chevrons.

Antipodes Parakeet
Cyanoramphus unicolor
Entirely green parakeet endemic to the subantarctic Antipodes Islands. The largest of New Zealand’s native parakeets. Males are larger than females. Common throughout their habitat and range, walking and climbing through vegetation when foraging. Will scavenge bird carcasses. An inquisitive bird, often approaching human visitors. Call is a distinctive deep “kok-kok-kok-kok” chatter. Shares its range with Reischek’s parakeet, but distinguishable by much larger size and lack of a red crown.

Hume's Wheatear
Oenanthe albonigra
Large wheatear with dark black head and back, and pure white breast and belly. Sexes alike. Extremely similar to the male of the picata form of Variable Wheatear, but Hume’s Wheatear is larger, with a larger bill and longer wings, and the black doesn’t extend past the throat, while the white extends farther up the back. Inhabits barren hills and rocky slopes, where it forages on the ground for invertebrates. The song is thrush-like with some sweet and buzzy notes. The call is a harsh “chuk.”
