Imperial Amazon
Amazona imperialis
A rather large, dark, and stout resident of wet upland forest. Note iridescent purple underparts, vivid green upperparts, and hefty black bill. The Red-necked Parrot, the only other native species within its range, can be readily separated from the Imperial Parrot by its largely green plumage and the red (not purple) patch on its throat. Most common call is a yelping "weep", also gives a loud, scratchy “eee-er.”
Blue-and-black Tanager
Tangara vassorii
This small tanager is found in the upper subtropical and temperate forest, higher than most other small Andean tanagers. Mostly blue with black wings, small black mask, and one blue wingbar. Could be confused with Masked Flowerpiercer but note black wings and more restricted black mask. Fairly common; usually found in pairs, often following a mixed species flock through the canopy.
Gray-headed Chickadee
Poecile cinctus
Large fluffy head, dark cocoa crown, big black chin patch, and rusty flanks separate this species from other tits in its home of the vast boreal forests. Usually occurs in well-preserved lichen-clad pine forests but also in upland birch forests. Varied vocal repertoire; some calls can be similar to Willow Tits. Feeds on insects and seeds. Visit feeders.
