Rufous-bellied Woodpecker
Dendrocopos hyperythrus
A beautiful woodpecker with three disjunct populations: an eastern one which breeds in northeastern China and Russia and winters in southeastern China, a western one in the Himalayas, and a southern one in southern mainland Southeast Asia. In all populations, note bright orange neck and belly, as well as black-and-white spotted wings. Bright red crown is found only on the male; the female has a patchy black and white one. Can be found in a wide range of foothill and lowland forest; favors mixed evergreen forests in the Himalayas, and open dry forest in Southeast Asia. Gives a range of rapid chattering calls and has a short, rapid drum which trails off towards the end.

行为
It has a tongue that has a brushy tip that allows it to feed on sap. Sap is predominantly sought in the spring season while wood-boring and bark insects are taken at most other times. The same trees may be used for the extraction of sap from year to year.

Jet Manakin
Chloropipo unicolor
Rarely encountered large manakin found in dense undergrowth of humid forests, mostly on outlying ridges along the east slope of the Andes. Male is entirely black with white underwings, visible when the wings are flicked or the bird flies; unlike any other manakin in range. Female is entirely brown and might be confused for a schiffornis, but note smaller size and white underwings. Most often noticed by its voice, a distinctive rising nasal “tuwee!”.
Green-throated Euphonia
Euphonia chalybea
Tiny bird with a strong thick bill and a short tail. Males are mostly glossy dark greenish-blue with a yellow band on the forehead and are entirely yellow below. Females are olive-green above with gray sides to the head and on the center of the breast and belly with yellow flanks. Inhabits the canopy of humid forests and forests edges; often accompanying mixed-species flocks. The song is a fast series of squeaky notes.
Spotted Wood-Quail
Odontophorus guttatus
Elusive dark quail found in the interior of humid tropical forest in lowlands and foothills. Forages stealthily in forest interior, usually in pairs or small groups, and usually runs rather than flies when disturbed. Sexes look alike, with erect crest, blackish throat, and white polka dots on breast. Sometimes in same areas as the much smaller Singing Quail, which is much more easily seen.
