New Guinea White-eye
Zosterops novaeguineae
A small bird of lowland or montane forest, dependent on the location. Olive-green back, yellow throat and under the base of the tail, whitish belly and white eye-ring. Sometimes mixes with other white-eye species. Very similar to Black-fronted White-eye, but New Guinea usually lacks black around the face, has less demarcated yellow throat and whitish underparts. Song, a high note, followed by a series of downslurred “piuu” notes. Call, a raspy, upslurred note.

Patagonian Yellow-Finch
Sicalis lebruni
Fairly common to uncommon, but often rather local in Patagonian steppe and grassland, often with nearby stony areas and low banks or bluffs. Found in pairs or flocks, and like other yellow-finches feeds mainly on the ground. Both sexes rather drab, but distinctive in range (no overlap with other species of yellow-finches). Yellow on male strongest on throat; female can appear drab and colorless, with yellow wash on belly often hard to see.
Papyrus Canary
Crithagra koliensis
This canary is typical in its appearance but unusual in its papyrus-dwelling habits. The male and female are similar but the male is more boldly marked, especially on the face. Found in papyrus swamp and adjacent habitats. Uncommon and inconspicuous. The song is a complex mix of quiet twitters and whistles. Similar to Western Citril, but separated by the lack of a yellow eyebrow. Extremely similar to Southern Citril, and best separated by the more bulging, pinkish bill.
Blue Jay
Cyanocitta cristata
Familiar but stunning jay found year-round throughout most of eastern North America. Bright blue above and pale gray below with a fluffy crest. Also look for black necklace and black and white markings on the wings and tail. Pairs or small groups travel through mature deciduous or coniferous woodlands, often revealing their presence with loud, harsh “jay” calls. Frequently visits bird feeders, where it is often aggressive towards other birds.
