Chestnut-backed Sparrow-Weaver

Small flycatcher, extremely similar to several other species. Generally shy and inconspicuous; breeds in spruce forests often near boggy areas. Migrants tend to be found in denser wet areas within woods. Olive-greenish above with distinctive yellow wash on throat and belly. Black wings with bold white wingbars. Nearly identical to Western Flycatchers, but limited range overlap. Within range, main confusion species is Least Flycatcher. Bright yellow throat and belly is usually enough to identify Yellow-bellied Flycatcher, but some worn birds can be very similar. Song is similar to Least Flycatcher ("chebek") but more slurred, with a soft buzzy tone. Not frequently repeated like Least Flycatcher. Soft whistled call note, "pwee," unlike Least's sharp "whit" call.

An unmistakable dove with a bright silver head, neck, and chest, dark green wings, a light green belly, and a yellowish tint to the forehead. Bill is bright banana yellow. Unique within its range. Call is a typical dove-like cooing, starting with “wooo wooo” followed by sounds likened to a taunting laughter.

Medium-sized lark of arid zones. Pale sandy overall with a strong yellowish-based bill and faint breast streaking. Differs from the similar Bar-tailed Lark by larger bill and broader diffuse dark tail band. Call is a soft “chup.” Song is a repeated phrase of flutey notes. Walks and runs on the ground, searching for small arthropods and plant material. Found in various desert habitats including sandy plains and rocky slopes.
