Cinnamon Bracken-Warbler

Bradypterus cinnamomeus

Mid-sized warbler with a long tail. Rufous overall, with a white throat and pale eye-line. Found in various open montane habitats, including bracken, heath, dense scrub, and forest edge. Skulks in the understory, though sometimes emerges into the open. The song starts with one or a couple of high notes, followed by a low, loose trill. The call is a peevish “tree-aat.” Similar to Evergreen-forest Warbler, but in most of the range distinguished by much more rufous overall coloration. Around the Albertine Rift, distinguished from the rufous local subspecies of Evergreen-forest Warbler by the well-defined white throat.

Red-legged Tinamou

Red-legged Tinamou

Crypturellus erythropus

Shy, fowl-like bird of open forest and scrubby areas; heard far more often than seen. Best identified by habitat and voice. Red legs are diagnostic. Forages alone or in pairs on ground in scrubby forests on sandy soils, walking slowly to pick up fruit, seeds and insects; does not gather in flocks. Haunting song is a slow, rising series of 2–3 notes; it is similar to that of Undulated Tinamou but typically has fewer notes and lacks a strongly upslurred final note.

White-bellied Piculet

White-bellied Piculet

Picumnus spilogaster

Tiny woodpecker of gallery and coastal forests, including mangroves. Variable in appearance; generally told from other piculets by lack of barring or scalloping on belly, although many individuals have some barring on breast and irregular black spotting on flanks, whereas some are almost entirely unmarked below. Forages at middle and canopy levels, alone or with mixed-species flocks. Climbs along branches and vines, boring into decaying wood for insect prey.

Waigeo Shrikethrush

Waigeo Shrikethrush

Colluricincla affinis

A chunky bird with a notably thick pale bill. Dark brown on the upperparts and paler brown below, with some blurry breast streaking. Found in the understory and at middle levels of humid forest, including secondary forest. Rich, melodious, variable song consists of several penetrating whistles, generally in an up-and-down pattern. Calls include “chek” and “whit” notes. Somewhat similar to Rusty Pitohui, but smaller, lacking rufous underparts, with a dark rather than pale eye.
