Black-throated Huet-huet
Pteroptochos tarnii
Fairly common but elusive; heard far more often than seen. Favors native temperate forest and adjacent shrubbery, especially bamboo. Feeds on the ground by scratching with its big feet in leaf litter, and runs very quickly and stealthily. Agitated birds can call loudly from middle level perches, cocking their tail. Nests in burrows, but can nest high up in tree hollows. Plumage distinctive, with pale eyering, dark slaty throat and breast, and rusty belly. No range overlap with Chestnut-throated Huet-huet.

Giant Laughingthrush
Ianthocincla maxima
Large brown laughingthrush with an orange face and white-spotted back and wings. Like many other laughingthrushes, often forages deep in cover, but will venture out onto trails and openings occasionally. Repetitive song emanates from middle-to-high-elevation forests. Usually seen in pairs or small groups.
LeConte's Sparrow
Ammospiza leconteii
This strikingly beautiful sparrow is found in wet meadows with tall grass. Look for the bright orange-buff face with a silvery cheek, spotted purplish-gray nape, and crisp black streaking on buffy underparts. Secretive; difficult to see well unless a male is perched up singing. Most similar to Nelson's Sparrow but typically found in slightly drier habitats; also note white stripe down center of crown on LeConte's. Sings a dry, hissing trill with sharp introductory notes.
Collared Falconet
Microhierax caerulescens
This tiny falcon is usually seen perched high up on an exposed snag towering above open forests. Generally uncommon and sparsely distributed throughout its range. Black above and pale below with rusty red throat and vent. Long dark stripe trailing behind the eye gives the bird a rather comical, panda-like appearance. Social; lives in family groups that are often seen grooming one another.
