Gunnison Sage-Grouse

Gray cuckoo with a remarkably long tail. Note dark red facial skin, pale greenish-yellow bill, and dark green gloss on the wings and tail. Chestnut-bellied and Black-bellied Malkohas can be similar; note Green-billed’s thin white border around the facial skin, dark eyes, and overall paler head and breast. Found in lowland and foothill forests and forest edges, as well as dense scrub and cultivated areas. Creeps through foliage like a squirrel. Gives various amphibian-like clucks and croaks.

A small, dumpy buff-and-brown weaver with a blue-gray bill, a dark bib, and scaly patterning on the back and flanks. Juveniles are duller, lacking the bib and scaling. It is restricted to open arid country, where hundreds can breed colonially in gigantic grass nests that are placed in trees or on man-made structures. Small to large groups forage on the ground, hopping and running after insects and seeds. The Scaly Weaver is smaller than the Sociable Weaver, is far less gregarious, and has a pinkish bill.

An unusual and colorful rainforest bulbul. The back and tail are dark olive-green, the head mostly gray, and the underparts yellow. There are yellow spots at the corners of the tail. Found in the understory of rainforest, gallery forest, and lush secondary habitat. Sometimes joins mixed flocks and follows ant swarms. The calls include chirpy notes and piercing whistles. The song is a series of jolly whistles that usually descend. Similar to Green-tailed Bristlebill, but separated by the gray rather than olive-green head, as well as the lack of blue bare skin above the eye. Also similar to Red-tailed Bristlebill, but easily separated by the green tail. In the very small area of overlap with Lesser Bristlebill, separated by the gray head and the lack of a yellow spot on the face.
