Green-headed Sunbird
Cyanomitra verticalis
Medium-sized sunbird in which males have an iridescent green head and breast, and females a green helmet. Depending on the light, these green areas can sometimes look blue. The pale yellow shoulder tufts are usually hidden. Found at low and middle elevations in lush woodland, gardens, and forest. Often in pairs, and sometimes in mixed-species flocks. Vocalizations include mewing and scolding calls, and a song that starts with hesitant notes but then breaks into a long trill. Male similar to male Blue-throated Brown Sunbird, but paler overall, with a larger area of iridescent green rather than blue on the head.

Rusty-flanked Treecreeper
Certhia nipalensis
Well-marked treecreeper with a tiny bill, warm brown upperparts, and a dark brown ear patch on a white face. Warm rusty tones on the sides contrast sharply with a clean white throat and may meld into dark upperparts at a distance. Resembles Hodgson’s Treecreeper, but has a straighter- and shorter-billed profile and warm tones on the sides. Like other treecreepers, forages by scaling trees and branches, often in flocks with other species.
Ruddy Shelduck
Tadorna ferruginea
Striking and distinctive gooselike duck. Plumage bright ruddy overall with contrasting pale creamy head and neck; male has narrow black neck ring. Big white forewing patches striking in flight. Breeds in southeastern Europe and Central Asia, winters in South Asia. Often found around saline lakes; also reservoirs and agricultural fields. Escapees from waterfowl collections occasionally seen free-flying outside of native range.
Cloud-forest Pygmy-Owl
Glaucidium nubicola
Small owl, active during the day and night. Very similar in plumage to other pygmy-owls; note elevation within very limited range in western Ecuador and Colombia. Found at higher elevations than Central American Pygmy-Owl and lower elevations than Andean Pygmy-Owl. Overall brown to rufous with white stripes on belly and small white spots on crown. Sexes alike. Quite rare. Found singly or in pairs in montane forests. Listen for doubled notes given on an even pitch.
