Eastern Bonelli's Warbler
Phylloscopus orientalis
A small, pallid, long-winged leaf warbler. Separable from the closely related Western Bonelli's Warbler by range and vocalizations. Similar to other leaf warblers such as Common Chiffchaff and Willow Warbler, but note present species’ plainer facial pattern, prominent yellowish-green wing panel and outer tail feathers, and very white underparts. Song is a short, ringing trill. Call is a distinctive sharp “tzip.” Flits around in bushes and trees searching for tiny invertebrates; often hovers while feeding. Breeds in dense Mediterranean scrub and forests. During non-breeding season, found in various vegetated habitats including desert acacia wadis, open woodlands, and scrub.

Gray-throated Barbet
Gymnobucco bonapartei
Dark, chunky barbet with an odd tuft of feathers on its forehead. The eye is pale in the eastern part of the range and dark in the west. Usually in small groups on and around dead trees in humid forest and secondary growth. The vocalizations include nasal “squeaky toy” calls, “peet” notes, and a dry rattle. Similar to Naked-faced and Bristle-nosed Barbets, but has a mostly feathered head and a dark bill. Sladen’s Barbet also has a dark bill, but Gray-throated is separated from that species by its feathered head.
Ocellated Poorwill
Nyctiphrynus ocellatus
Dark brown nightjar of humid forests. Smooth reddish brown overall with small black spots, a clean white throat band, and white tail corners. In flight, appears dark brown overall with white tail corners but no white wing patches. Look for it in mature rainforest, with or without dense understory. Song is a single quavering, reverberating note, “PEEur,” like plucking a taut string.
Yellow-billed Magpie
Pica nuttalli
Large, striking black-and-white bird; related to crows and jays. Unmistakably long tail and bold pattern, especially visible in flight. Look for bright yellow bill and iridescent blue-green on wings and tail. Limited range in California; does not overlap with Black-billed Magpie. Prefers open areas with scattered trees, especially oaks. Often found in pairs or small family groups foraging on the ground.
