Sucre Antpitta

Quite large flycatcher found at all levels of humid forests including Araucaria forests. The upperparts are a deep rufous contrasting with a mostly gray head and paler orange underparts. Typically perches almost motionless, but its voice is a far-carrying whistled “fee-fee-fii,” repeated for long periods all day long. Looks similar to the larger Gray-hooded Attila, but has a rufous rather than gray throat. In the nonbreeding season migrates north into northern Amazonia.

Distinctive finch with a disjunct distribution. Males have an olive-green back with black streaks, and a contrasting face pattern with a broad white eyebrow and a black mask. Note the bicolored bill. Female lacks the bold head pattern. Inhabits well-preserved tall natural grasslands with scattered shrubs. Song is a very high, thin “tziieep...tsi-tsíp...zz-tzzz...”

A distinctive red finchlike bird found in woodlands, forest edges, shrubby areas, urban parks, and gardens. Males are mostly dark red with a cinnamon back, and a black crown with a bright red center. Females lack the crest and are mostly dark brown with a cinnamon breast and rump. Both sexes have white eyerings. The song is a series of two alternating whistles.
