Finsch's Francolin

Finsch's Francolin

Scleroptila finschi

Medium-sized francolin with a mostly gray body, rufous head, and white throat. Found locally on the ground in grassy habitats including savanna, montane grassland, and woodland. Usually in pairs or small groups. Typical vocalization is a duet of “chur-it-cheer” phrases and a repeated single note. Somewhat similar to Red-winged Francolin, but duller, without a strongly marked face or heavily striped breast. 

Vogelkop Owlet-nightjar

Vogelkop Owlet-nightjar

Aegotheles affinis

A mid-sized owlet-nightjar of lower montane forests. Strongly barred back and chest with a brown base, whitish belly and a pale collar. A large, fluffy-headed appearance. Often seen with its head sticking out of a tree cavity. The similar Wallace’s and Mountain Owlet-Nightjars may co-occur but Vogelkop Owlet-Nightjar has only barring on the chest and lacks the small white streaks, or flecks on the back. Vocalizations unknown.

Green-tailed Trainbearer

Lesbia nuna

Occurs from Colombia to Peru, from around 1,900 to 3,000 m. Typically found at the edge of forests or shrubby woodlands, but also in drier and more open areas.
