Blue-moustached Bee-eater
Merops mentalis
An easily overlooked forest bee-eater of West and Central Africa, often found in the forest interior and near forest edge or tree-fall gaps. Dark overall, with a bluish to blue-purple head, belly, and tail, a red throat, a dark eye-line, and a reddish back. May overlap locally with Blue-headed Bee-eater in South-West Region, Cameroon, but Blue-moustached Bee-eater has a dark forehead and a noticeable eye-line. Calls include a seldom-heard, two-parted “ji-up!”

Black-faced Coucal
Centropus melanops
A large, long-tailed bird of forest tangles in the lowlands and lower mountains of the southern Philippines. Distinguished by black belly and tail, chestnut wings, cream color from the upper back and chest up to the top of the crown, and a triangular black mask on the face reaching a point at the back of the head. No other similar species in range. Skulking and more often heard than seen. Gives a deep, rapid “wup-wup!” or a lazy, upslurred “woooop!”
