• Yucatan Jay Cyanocorax yucatanicus

  A conspicuous jay of woodland and forest edges on the Yucatan Peninsula, usually seen in groups of about 5–25. Young birds pass through a brief pale plumage before acquiring adult colors.

• White-bellied Canary Crithagra dorsostriata

  This canary lives in dry scrub and savanna in eastern Africa. It searches for grass seeds near the ground, and some birds move outside the breeding season.

• Brown Prinia Prinia polychroa

  The Brown Prinia uses dry grassland and scrubby growth at forest edges. It searches for insects and larvae close to the ground.

• Yellow-throated Warbler Setophaga dominica

  The Yellow-throated Warbler has a grey back and vivid yellow throat. It moves through the forest canopy, probing branches and pine needles for insects.

• Moustached Antpitta Grallaria alleni

  This ground-dwelling antpitta is recorded in the Andean foothills of Colombia and Ecuador, where it uses dense undergrowth in wet forest.

• Bay Coucal Centropus celebensis

  The Bay Coucal has a mostly rufous body, with a gray crown and reddish wings. It moves through forest undergrowth on Sulawesi and nearby islands while searching for insects.

• Andean Snipe Gallinago jamesoni

  The Andean Snipe inhabits wet grassland and waterside habitats high in the Andes. Pale stripes on its back and dark bars underneath help identify it.

• Orange-winged Pytilia Pytilia afra

  The Orange-winged Pytilia is a waxbill with conspicuous orange-yellow wings. It feeds on grass seeds and insects on the ground; the female’s wing color is duller than the male’s.

• Himalayan Black-lored Tit Machlolophus xanthogenys

  This tit is marked by a black-and-yellow face, a strong dark eye-stripe, and white spots on the wings. Small groups search the middle and upper parts of forests.

• Red-throated Pipit Anthus cervinus

  A pipit whose adult breeding plumage has a rusty-red throat and breast. It breeds on northern tundra and moves south seasonally.

• Palau Broadbill Myiagra erythrops

  This forest bird is endemic to Palau. It occurs across the islands' forests and is especially numerous in mangroves in the cited field guide.

• Lemon-throated Leaf Warbler Phylloscopus cebuensis

  This small leaf warbler occurs on several Philippine islands. Its olive upperparts and yellow eyebrow, face, and throat stand out, though published accounts report island-level variation in the yellow areas. It searches leaves for insects.

• Böhm's Spinetail Neafrapus boehmi

• Cinnamon Tanager Schistochlamys ruficapillus

  Cinnamon Tanager occurs mainly in Brazil south of the Amazon and uses semi-open grassy country with scattered shrubs and low trees. A specimen study describes a cinnamon-colored throat and breast and a whitish belly. It found substantial individual and geographic variation in plumage, so one color pattern does not represent every bird.

• Panama Tyrannulet Phylloscartes flavovirens

  This small tyrannulet is locally distributed in Panama. It searches for arthropods in the forest canopy and is recorded as a year-round resident.
