Drab Seedeater
Sporophila simplex
Well-named seedeater found in arid scrub and adjacent farmland in western Peru and southwestern Ecuador. Its best field marks are the distinct wingbars and bill color (pinkish on breeding males, nearly black on other individuals). Bill is smaller and less bulbous than that of Parrot-billed Seedeater. Sometimes found alone, but loose flocks may converge on areas with abundant food, such as fields of seeding grass. Males often sing a short series of buzzy notes.

Planalto Tapaculo
Scytalopus pachecoi
Small, nondescript bird that is usually very difficult to spot. Mostly dark gray with a cinnamon vent with dark bars. Females are browner. Occurs in primary forests and old second growth, including Araucaria forest with dense understory; especially fond of areas with terrestrial bromeliads. The song is a very long and monotonous repetition of a single note.
Napo Sabrewing
Campylopterus villaviscensio
Large, dark hummingbird found in cloud forest along the east slope of the Andes. Ranges from far southern Colombia south to northern Peru. Male has large blue patch on throat and breast, and a glittering green crown. Female has gray underparts; she is similar to Gray-breasted Sabrewing but has narrower white tail tips. Also note white spot behind eye. Infrequently encountered, though does visit feeders in some areas.
Nankeen Night Heron
Nycticorax caledonicus
Stocky heron that roosts in groups in tall trees, usually beside water (including mangroves). Adult is rufous with pale breast and a black cap. Immature is heavy streaked, and can be easily confused with Striated Heron (black crown), Black Bittern (darker, with yellow neck stripe), or Australasian Bittern (which is a much larger bird).
