Arabian Lark
Eremalauda eremodites
A chunky, large-billed lark of desolate sandy deserts and open arid plains of the Arabian Peninsula. Plain sandy-brown above and paler below, with faint white markings and a dark moustache mark on the face. Also note the pinkish bill and the inky black outer tail feathers, most apparent in flight. Runs about on the ground, stopping abruptly. Found singly or in pairs when breeding, gathering in larger groups only during the non-breeding season. Song, a sequence of beautiful burbling phrases, is given both from the ground and in song flight. Calls include a low wet rattle and a mellow two-noted whistle. Generally similar to other dry-country larks such as Desert and Bar-tailed Larks, but combination of more streaked upperparts, black outer tail feathers, and uniformly pink and bulbous bill is diagnostic.

White-edged Oriole
Icterus graceannae
Bright orange-and-black bird found in dry forest in western Ecuador and northwestern Peru. The only other oriole in its range is Yellow-tailed Oriole; White-edged lacks yellow on the underside of the tail, has more extensive white in the wing, and is usually (but not always) a deeper orange color. Juveniles are duller and less orange. Forages conspicuously in the trees, and even visits feeders in some areas.
Rufous-winged Woodpecker
Piculus simplex
Fairly small woodpecker, overall olive-green with bright red crown and mustache. Barred belly. Female similar to male but shows red only on nape. Both sexes have pale eye. Don’t look for rufous in the wing, it’s very subtle! Found in forests and edges, singly or in pairs.
Yellow Chat
Epthianura crocea
Brightly colored, terrestrial songbird of open and arid regions and salt marsh from northern central Australia to northern Western Australia, with isolated subspecies near Darwin and on the coast near Rockhampton, Queensland. Olive above, rich bright yellow below, with yellow head and small black chest patch. In flight, back is the same tone as the wings and contrasts with the yellow uppertail. Females plainer, with yellowish underparts, grayish face, and pale eye.
