Spotted Tanager

Medium-sized cloud forest hummingbird found in the Andes from southeastern Ecuador to Bolivia. The bold, white neck crescent is often its most obvious feature. Male has an iridescent violet throat and turquoise forehead, though these features can look dark in poor light. Female mostly lacks iridescence, and throat is often tinged orange or buff. Does not overlap with Tourmaline Sunangel; separated from other sunangels by white neck band. Usually seen foraging in clearings or at forest edge, and visits feeders in some areas.

Striking and beautiful terrestrial finch-like tanager of the high Andes of central and southern Bolivian and extreme NW Argentina. Yellow head and mid chest and belly, contrasting sharply with mostly gray plumage, is distinctive. Prefers open habitats such as desert, gravel, and roadsides, where will form flocks, often mixed with other species of Yellow-Finches. Similar to Bright-rumped Yellow-Finch, but note mostly gray underparts on Citron-headed.

Large nightjar of the eastern ranges of Australia, most commonly seen in the late evening when hawking over water or over clearings in forests. Primarily dark gray, with extensive barring. All-dark tail and fairly plain wing evident in flight. Song is a unique bubbling that rises in pitch and frequency.
