Western Fieldwren
Calamanthus montanellus
Small bird of open arid shrubland and grasslands in southwestern Western Australia. Pale brown above, whitish below, with distinct pale supercilium, streaking on head chest, and long, cocked tail. Forages quietly on the ground or in thick vegetation, where difficult to see. Most easily observed in spring when males perch up in vegetation to sing. Similar to Rufous Fieldwren but no range overlap. Compare Shy Heathwren, which has an unstreaked back and head, white wing spot and darker legs.

Palila
Loxioides bailleui
A rare Hawaiian honeycreeper of high elevation dry forests on the western slope of Mauna Kea volcano on Hawaii Island. Occurs only above 6,500 feet. Males and females are similarly patterned but males are more brightly colored. Quiet and generally shy, but males may sing from an exposed perch. Sometimes found in pairs or small groups. Feeds primarily on green seed pods of the mamane tree. Call is a soft “pah-lee-lah.”
Masked Shining-Parrot
Prosopeia personata
A distinctive large bright green parrot with a black face and a rough-edged yellow chest and belly. Occurs in a variety of habitats. Black face and yellow chest separate it from the similarly sized Crimson and Red Shining-Parrots. Voice is typical of parrots, including a variety of nasal “erh” and “grrraah” calls.
Chat Flycatcher
Agricola infuscatus
A large, chat-like buff-brown flycatcher. Lighter edges to the flight feathers form a pale wing panel. Individuals, pairs, and loosely associated groups sit on shrubs, fences, and telephone wires in arid shrublands and savanna. They drop to the ground, where they look distinctly chat-like, to hunt insects and small vertebrates. They also hawk for food. The plain brown tail and rump differentiates Chat Flycatcher from all chats. The similar Pale Flycatcher is smaller, lacks the paler wing panel, and prefers moist broadleaf woodland.
