Pied Goshawk

Tachyspiza albogularis

A highly variable goshawk with pale, intermediate, and dark morphs. Pale morph is gray on the wings, back, and head, with a rufous collar and white underparts. Dark morph is entirely black with a pale eye. Intermediate morph is black on top and white below. Prefers forested habitats but appears adaptable, and is not uncommon around human settlements. Similar to the rarer Imitator Sparrowhawk, but larger and paler, with a pale eye. Pale morph resembles New Britain Sparrowhawk, but is larger, with a paler throat and a longer tail. Much smaller and slimmer than Meyer’s Goshawk. Often gives a crying “ki-ki-ki” during breeding season, but otherwise mostly silent.

Many-colored Fruit-Dove

Ptilinopus perousii

A spectacular dove with a red crown and shawl, a white face, a yellow neck, a yellow back with gray chevrons, a gray uppertail, a red undertail, and a flecked red breast. Often found in pairs, but can gather in large groups at fruiting trees. Female similar to female Crimson-crowned Fruit-Dove, but has a less reddish cap and a darker green neck. Gives two commonly heard calls, a typical pigeon-like cooing phrase likened to the words “let it go, let it go,” and a series of cooing notes that rapid increases in speed like a marble dropped on a hard surface.

Sylvietta brachyura

A small and virtually tailless warbler with a gray-brown back and rufous underparts. There is some geographical variation; the throat can be dull rufous, dull white, or bright white. Always shows a gray-brown eye-line. Found in a wide variety of savanna and woodland habitats. Similar to Red-faced Crombec, but has a strong eye-line, and in the area of overlap, usually shows a bright white throat. The song is a quick, jumbled whistled phrase that varies somewhat across the range. The call is a rapid wooden trill.
