Dusky Piha
Lipaugus fuscocinereus
This large, relatively long-tailed cotinga is completely lacking in distinctive plumage: it is entirely plain gray. Sexes alike. Found from around 2,000–3,000 m, far above the elevation range of any similar cotingas. Could be confused with Great Thrush, which is a similar size and color, but note dark legs and bill. Also focus on the Piha’s shape, with its long tail, short bill, and round head. Occurs in humid cloud forest, where it typically perches inconspicuously in the middle to upper levels of forest. Often found around fruiting trees.

Scarlet-crowned Barbet
Capito aurovirens
Fairly common in riverine and varzea forest of western Amazonia. A fairly large barbet with typical stout bill. Distinctive plumage: mostly brown with orange breast and red crown (whitish or buffy on female). Unlikely to be confused with other barbets. Look for pairs in the canopy, often feeding in a fruiting tree or perched quietly on an open branch. Listen for froglike trilled notes, repeated in a series.

Maroon-faced Parakeet
Pyrrhura leucotis
Handsome and gregarious parakeet with a long, pointed tail. A colorful parakeet with a brown crown, a blue nape, blue flight feathers, a maroon face with whitish ears, and a maroon belly, shoulders and undertail. Inhabits the canopy and edges of humid forests and woodlands.

Elegant Crested-Tinamou
Eudromia elegans
Distinctive and striking tinamou, nearly endemic to Argentina, from northern Patagonia through the Monte desert region. Prefers open, rocky habitat. In the northern chaco replaced by similar Quebracho Crested-Tinamou. Often found by its three-part whistled song: a “twee-tyoo-too” similar to but less emphatic and more consistently pitched than Red-winged Tinamou.
