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.

Arrowhead Piculet
Picumnus minutissimus
Common piculet of coastal forests. Note short-tailed profile, large feet, and cone-shaped bill. Found in mangroves, gardens, abandoned plantations, and disturbed areas. Creeps quietly through vine tangles and bores into dead twigs at lower and middle levels. Similar to Golden-spangled and White-barred Piculets, but Arrowhead has chevron-shaped spots (not barring) on the breast and belly, and is strictly confined to coastal habitats.
White-rumped Swiftlet
Aerodramus spodiopygius
A small, mostly gray swiftlet, paler beneath with a pale throat and darker cap. White rump varies from white to pale gray. Occurs over a wide range of habitats up to 1900 meters of elevation. Similar to both Uniform Swiftlet and Mayr’s Swiftlet, but smaller, with a paler rump. Main call is a pleasant twitter, “twee-twee-chew-chew.”
Yellow Longbill
Macrosphenus flavicans
An unusual warbler with a long bill and yellow eyes. Brownish above and dull yellow below with a gray head and whitish throat. Found in rainforest, mainly in dense tangles at middle levels, usually in pairs or small groups. Similar in appearance to other longbills, but with a good view, separated by the coloration of the underparts. Most often detected by the distinctive song: a long series of clear whistled notes in which each note is slightly lower in pitch. The pattern is similar to that of Sabine’s Puffback, and the individual notes sound very batis-like.
