Oriole Warbler
Hypergerus atriceps
A large warbler with a long tail and bill. Odd and unique, with a somewhat oriole-like coloration: a black hood with white scaling, an olive-green back, and yellow underparts. With a good view, cannot be confused with any other bird. Prefers gallery forest in areas near water, though also found along rainforest edge and in plantations and mangroves. A skulking bird that is usually detected by the male’s song: an exuberant series of loud whistles, given in a variable, robin-like pattern. The female sometimes accompanies this song with low chattering scolds.

Barking Owl
Ninox connivens
Medium sized gray-brown owl with white underparts heavily streaked brown. Favors edge habitats and often roosts near creeks in woodlands. Feeds on small to medium sized mammals. Known for its diagnostic ‘woof-woof’ call which sounds like a dog barking.
Sharpe's Apalis
Apalis sharpii
A slender, plain sooty-gray apalis with red eyes and a white-tipped tail; female has a buff-chestnut throat. Juvenile has yellowish underparts. Restricted to Upper Guinea, where it is resident; pairs inhabit the canopy of tall primary and secondary lowland, gallery, and dry forest, where no similar apalises occur. Most often detected by its characteristic song, a sweet rollicking “chi-reet, chi-reet, chi-reet,” sometimes given in duet.
American Barn Owl
Tyto furcata
Medium-sized owl with a heart-shaped facial disc and deep dark eyes; the only Tyto owl present across most of its range; on Hispaniola compare to Ashy-faced Owl. Varies across a wide range, but always note white-and-black speckling on the upperparts, beautiful gray-and-tawny wings, and large round head. Color of the facial disc and underparts varies from pure white to rusty orange. Hunts in open areas by night, foraging with a slow and buoyant flight. Roosts in old buildings, tree hollows, caves, and nest boxes by day. Gives a bone-chilling, rising shriek, as well as shorter rasping calls and insect-like clicks.
