MysteryWoodcreepers.mp3
Is this a duetting pair of Barred and Concolor Woodcreepers (Dendrocolaptes certhia resp. D. certhia concolor)? Two mysterious duets in the background of the Ruddy Spinetail recording on the Jacques Vielliard CD "Guia Sonoro das Aves do Brasil, CD 1".
The first song in each duet is more or less identical to Barred Woodcreeper (D. certhia) song. The second song is unique and very distinctive however. What it comes closest to is my own Concolor W. recording on the Bolivia 2 CD-ROM (an unseen bird; recorded in NE Santa Cruz). Those two Woodcreepers are supposed to be parapatric!
I am not certain my identification is correct. If someone has a better idea, please tell me! (on the Birding Peru forum please).

Added on 5 June 2004:
According to Curtis Marantz (who should know, he wrote the HBW Woodcreepers chapter), the Woodcreeper "duet" is a Concolor/Barred Woodcreeper, Dendrocolaptes certhia (concolor?), and a Buff-throated Woodcreeper, Xiphorhynchus guttatus ("apparently an eytoni type, suggesting that the Dendrocolaptes was indeed a concolor-type").
I may add that the BTW is certainly not X. guttatus dorbignyanus (it sings very different, I have lots of Bolivian recordings) nor X. guttatus guttatoides (5 recordings on the Birds of Ecuador DVD-ROM).
With thanks to Jeremy Minns, who contacted Curtis.

MysterySoundAmazoniaLodgeManu.mp3
Mystery sound, recorded by Ramiro Yabar at the Amazonia Lodge, Madre de Dios, at 500 m. altitude. Also heard are a singing Buff-throated Saltator (Saltator maximus), singing Gray-fronted Doves (Leptotila rufaxilla), and what sound like calling Silver-beaked Tanagers (Ramphocelus carbo). Ramiro thinks it may be Pale-legged Hornero (Furnarius leucopus), and I have no idea whatsoever! Anyone?Sjoerd Mayer, Holland |

MysteryUnseenBirdLeymebamba2800mWPVellinga.mp3
Sjoerd Mayer writes:
So what is this? Unseen bird, recorded in wet habitat at 2800 m near Leymebamba on the Amazonas/San Martin border, by Willem-Pier Vellinga. Just a wild guess: Scytalopus latrans intermedius??
Jonas Nilsson writes.
I´ve never heard this but it sounds somewhat like a Scytalopus. Was
it recorded from the undergrowth? Maybe alarm call of Large-footed
Tapaculo, S. macropus?? The call (alarm call?) of what I suspect
could be S. latrans intermedius (defenitely a Scytalopus) and that
I´ve recorded at Abra Barro Negro, sounds almost like the song of
West Peruvian Screech-Owl, Otus roboratus; the Tapaculo being
faster, higher pitched and not so long.
Willem-Pierre Velinga writes:
This sound was indeed recorded from the undergrowth (in tall, very nice
forest) and my feeling at the time was that it had to be a scytalopus. As I´d never heard anything like it, and it was completely different
from the known sound of macropus I figured this would have to be
intermedius. Of course it could still be a call of macropus. Both
sounds
discussed here could be heard from the same spot.
I have only one recording I think of this particular mystery-call. I´ll
try to post another sound ("possible-latransintermedius-2-22") that I
figured could be from intermedius, and that I recorded a few times. Note
that there seem to be two birds involved, as might be the case in the
mystery recording.

SaffronCrestedTyrantManakinTwoDifferentSongs.mp3
Two different songs of Saffron-crested Tyrant-Manakin, the first from near Iquitos, the 2nd from Amazonas, Venezuela. I wonder if the 2nd song is also heard in Peru?
Jonas Nilsson writes:
I´ve never heard the 2nd song in Peru, only the first.
(Sjoerd:) Peter Boesman later told that his Venezuela recording was probably in error.

CloudForestScreechOwlSong.mp3
Song of Cloud-forest Screech-Owl I would think. Recorded near Oxapampa, Pasco, at 2500 m, in cloud forest, by Jon Hornbuckle. White-throated Screech-Owls in the foreground.
Sjoerd Mayer
(Sjoerd:) From some discussion with Dan Lane and Jonas Nilsson about this (much too short) recording, I think it is fair to conclude that the background bird is probably a Cloud Forest Screech-Owl, but that that is not certain.
