Pale-billed Antpitta
Grallaria carrikeri
Distinctive antpitta found only in high-elevation cloud forest on the east slope of the Andes in northern Peru. Adult has chestnut upperparts, gray underparts, a black face and throat, a chalky white bill, and a red eye. The rarely-seen juvenile is mostly gray with cinnamon barring. Inhabits forest understory in areas with abundant bamboo. Suitable habitat near roads has been mostly cleared for farmland, so seeing this bird usually involves a tough hike over steep terrain. It usually stays on the ground unless singing. Song is a leisurely series of hollow hoots; the second note is typically lower in pitch than the others.

Black-legged Seriema
Chunga burmeisteri
Tall terrestrial predator of the Chaco region. Plumage distinctively shaggy. Prefers dense, spiny vegetation, often with thick undergrowth, but can occur in nearby open areas. Smaller and shyer than Red-legged Seriema. Despite its large size, can be difficult to see, and is more often detected by its loud, far-carrying song.
Koepcke's Screech-Owl
Megascops koepckeae
Small gray or brown owl with ear tufts. Found at high elevations in woodlots and forest edges, including in Polylepis forests. Found at higher elevations than the similar Peruvian Screech-Owl. Listen for its song, a staccato, crescendoing series of laughing “kak” notes.
Sunda Crow
Corvus enca
Medium-sized black crow with a relatively long, slightly decurved bill. Plumage has an iridescent dark blue sheen when seen up close. Bill is notably more slender than that of Large-billed Crow. Favors intact lowland forest and forest edge; generally replaced by Large-billed Crow in more degraded and fragmented habitats. Often encountered as pairs or small flocks in rowing flight over roads, rivers, and clearings. Gives loud nasal caws, often with a rather dry quality. Formerly treated as part of a more generic “Slender-billed Crow” that ranged from the Philippines to Sulawesi; Sunda Crow ranges from the southern Thai-Malay Peninsula and Sumatra to Borneo and Bali.
