Fan-tailed Monarch
Symposiachrus axillaris
Medium-sized bird of mid-montane forest. Fairly long tail is often held cocked. All glossy black with a white tuft in front of the shoulder. Female is slightly duller. Found in pairs and sometimes associates with other species. Often catches insects on the wing. Very similar to Black Fantail, but Fan-tailed Monarch has the distinctive white tuft and a different vocalization. Also, tail is only partially fanned. Voice, scratchy, grating notes.
Taiwan Blue-Magpie
Urocissa caerulea
Large, long-tailed bird with rich blue plumage, black head, coral-red bill and feet, and yellow eye. Inhabits lower foothills to lower montane forests and edges (to 1200 m), occasionally venturing into forested parks. Forages in small flocks gliding from tree to tree. Long tail especially apparent in flight. Noisy; gives loud, sharp “kack” calls (much like Eurasian Magpie) and rasping notes.
Gray-backed Hawk
Pseudastur occidentalis
An endangered raptor found only in western Ecuador and immediately adjacent parts of Peru. It has white underparts, dark gray back and wings, and gray streaks on the head. Its tail is white with a thick black band near the tip that is especially evident in flight. Restricted to areas where extensive forest cover remains. Prefers dry and semi-humid areas; not normally present in the wetter forests of northwestern Ecuador, but may occasionally wander into them.
