White-headed Marsh Tyrant

Small cuckooshrike with a restricted range, found only on Obi and Bisa Islands, in the central Moluccas. Males are mainly gray with black on the face and wing. Distinctive female is mostly rufous-brown, with unmarked buffy underparts, and a gray cap. Found in forest and forest edge habitats. Vocalizations poorly known, but apparently include a long rattling note. The male is similar to male Pale Cicadabird, but is significantly darker, with a mostly black face. The rufous-brown female is completely different from the pale gray female Pale Cicadabird.

Elegant, dark-hooded gull, restricted to coastal East Asia. Small but stout-bodied and long-winged, with a dark bill in all plumages. Adult has a black head in breeding plumage; in all adult plumages, note distinctive white wingtips, unlike Black-headed. Black-headed Gull is generally similar, but larger, with a longer reddish bill and sturdier structure. Juvenile and first winter have black bill, unlike young Black-headed, which has pale reddish or yellowish bill base. Call distinctive, a high-pitched, ternlike “kee-eek.”

Brown parrot with yellow-and-red belly and deep blue face, typically found in dry inland habitats in eastern Australia. Multiple subspecies vary in the color of their wing patch, belly, and undertail. Usually seen in small groups, this species is often hard to approach and is easily flushed. In flight, the blue wings and red shoulders contrast with pale brown back. Distinguished from the similar but smaller Naretha Bluebonnet by presence of red on belly.
