Likely same individual both recordings. Also. Rec 1: Russet Nightingale-Thrush. Rec 2: White-throated Thrush.
	2868 (1 sounds) Black Thrush (Turdus infuscatus) monotypic Thrushes and Allies (Turdidae) Camino a Tzontehuitz, San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Chiapas (Chp), Mexico 2017-04-21 Typical melodic song with repeated repertoire. Also: Cabani's Wren, White-tipped Dove

	2865 (1 sounds) Black-headed Siskin (Spinus notatus ?) Finches, Euphonias and Allies (Fringillidae) Camino Calaque, Zapotlán el Grande, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-02-10 Male twitter.
	2864 (1 sounds) Black-headed Trogon (Trogon melanocephalus melanocephalus) Trogons (Trogonidae) Tikal PN, Petén, Guatemala 2016-01-05 Pretty sure it is this species, though the song isn't full and complete. Also: ?
	2860 (1 sounds) Limpkin (Aramus guarauna dolosus) Limpkin (Aramidae) Crooked Tree, Belize District, Belize 2018-12-06 Call. Unusual to me without any of the crane-like quality to it. Heard both at night and during the day. The recording is from mid-morning. Also: Common Tody-Flycatcher.
	2859 (3 sounds) Great Black Hawk (Buteogallus urubitinga ridgwayi) Hawks, Eagles and Kites (Accipitridae) Crooked Tree, Belize District, Belize 2018-12-06 Juvenile. Calling and posing perfectly (camera defect a few hours before). The long outdrawn call. At one point it sounded like the sound came from another direction, as if another bird was responding.

	2848 (1 sounds) Bewick's Wren (Thryomanes bewickii mexicanus) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Monte Albán, Oaxaca (Oax), Mexico 2018-04-12 The most typical song type, the trill preceded by single odd note.
	2847 (2 sounds) Bearded Screech-Owl (Megascops barbarus) monotypic Owls (Strigidae) Camino a Tzontehuitz, San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Chiapas (Chp), Mexico 2017-04-21 Steady intense and bubbling trill.

	2836 (1 sounds) Banded Wren (Thryophilus pleurostictus oaxacae) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Huatulco, Oaxaca (Oax), Mexico 2018-07-15 Song. Reminds a lot of Sinaloa Wren, which is only found further north. Also reminds of the Nightingale!
	2835 (1 sounds) Banded Wren (Thryophilus pleurostictus oaxacae) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Huatulco, Oaxaca (Oax), Mexico 2018-07-13 Song. Reminds a lot of Sinaloa Wren, which is only found further north.
	2834 (1 sounds) Arizona Woodpecker (Dryobates arizonae fraterculus) Woodpeckers (Picidae) Camino Calaque, Zapotlán el Grande, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-02-10 Call. Male. The sharp spotted woodpecker call which also Ladder-backed has. However Arizona often sounds a bit more rusty.
	2833 (1 sounds) Amethyst-throated Hummingbird (Lampornis amethystinus ?) Hummingbirds (Trochilidae) Volcán Nevado de Colima, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-08-29 Call. Sharper than Rivoli's.
	2832 (1 sounds) American Robin (Turdus migratorius migratorius (migratorius)) Thrushes and Allies (Turdidae) Durango Highway, Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-06-01 Song.
	2831 (1 sounds) American Robin (Turdus migratorius migratorius (migratorius)) Thrushes and Allies (Turdidae) Volcán Nevado de Colima, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-06-23 Song.
	2830 (1 sounds) American Robin (Turdus migratorius migratorius (migratorius)) Thrushes and Allies (Turdidae) Durango Highway, Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-05-27 Song.
	2829 (19 photos) (1 sounds) Gray-breasted Wood-Wren (Henicorhina leucophrys) monotypic Wrens (Troglodytidae) Volcán Nevado de Colima, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-08-29 Adult. Unmistakable when seen well. In this area it is only Happy Wren that looks alike, but it is bigger, and has a warmer and paler colored breast and a much longer tail. The species is a notorious skulker, and this bird only came out when I started to back play it's own call.
	2827 (2 photos) (1 sounds) Amethyst-throated Hummingbird (Lampornis amethystinus ?) Hummingbirds (Trochilidae) El Terrero, Minatitlán, Colima (Col), Mexico 2018-11-08 Female-type. Looks a lot like female of Blue-throated, but has less white in the tail and is warmer colored in front which could be appreciated in the field but not in these poor photos.
	2825 (14 photos) (3 sounds) Colima Warbler (Oreothlypis crissalis) monotypic New World Warblers (Parulidae) El Terrero, Minatitlán, Colima (Col), Mexico 2018-11-08 Can't say anything about age or sex, but I can say, that this bird is a Lifer! Finally I managed to find this rare winter visitor, and so very appropriate that it happens in Colima, exactly! It was alone foraging low in the bushes in the semi-open understory, a short distance above the km 12 sign. It responded to playback of the call, but didn't seem to take much notice of it, as it continued foraging the next 10 minutes close by before it decided to move on. This was my first visit at the locality, but the fact that the forest consists of first class mature tall small-leaf oaks with a healthy and dense understory, something I don't think I've seen on the other side of the volcanoes in the same degree, makes me suspect the species prefers exactly this type of oak forest as it's winter residence. As soon as I saw the bird, I knew it was something special that I hadn't seen before. But it took a while before the right species occurred to me. It is a big warbler, and the dark plumage makes it look bigger. It is very different from it's cousins Virginia's and Nashville, whereas the former always seems brightly gray white, with restricted yellow to the vent and the breast, and the latter generally looks overall yellowish. All field characters are seen in this set of photos, warm yellow undertail and ocher rump, dirty flanks, brownish back, strong eye-ring and liver red crown feathers. Plus the big size and the voice confirmation. The photos have been cropped, but are otherwise untouched, except for a few of them where I've lightened them slightly to have characters stand out better. But take a look at photo 14, which has not been post-processed, but was heavily over-exposed from the beginning. If someone showed me this photo alone, I'm pretty sure I would have called the bird a Virginia's, if anything, and never a Colima. So again again: Don't ever rely on single poor quality photos to make your decisions. Rare
	2768 (5 photos) (1 sounds) Gray Flycatcher (Empidonax wrightii) monotypic Tyrant Flycatchers (Tyrannidae) Volcán Nevado de Colima, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-09-30 When I saw it in the binoculars, I thought it looked like a Pewee, because it looked so longish and overall gray, something the normal empidonax's from the area don't show. It was strange, however, that a constant empidonax whit call was heard in direct of the bird, and there didn't seem to be other birds around, why I assume that it came from this bird.The proportions fit a Gray Flycatcher well, and I allow myself to believe I can see a well-marked black tip to the bill below, on photo 2, why I in all likewise will allow myself to count my first Gray Flycatcher in Jalisco!
	2720 (7 photos) (1 sounds) Cinnamon-bellied Flowerpiercer (Diglossa baritula baritula) Tanagers and Allies (Thraupidae) Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-08-19 Adult male. Unmistakable when seen well, with the combination of color and the hooked bill tip. It's a species I've had difficulties with. It was therefore a big surprise to find it here, in my local hills. It is known from the volcanoes, but I've never had much success with it there either. This bird sang, as you can hear, and chased another bird, which most likely was a female. The song reminds me of The European Serin - to have a memorable reference at hand.
	2690 (6 photos) (1 sounds) Map Slaty Vireo (Vireo brevipennis) monotypic Vireos, Shrike-Babblers and Erpornis (Vireonidae) Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-07-05 A surprise to find a pair of this species on this side of Ciudad Guzmán. Sang spontaneously when I passed by along the road. Thick understory in pine-oak forest. Recording also: Orange-billed Nightingale-Thrush. Endemic
	2581 (8 photos) (1 sounds) Great Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus arundinaceus arundinaceus) Reed Warblers and Allies (Acrocephalidae) Villahøj, Vestamager, Denmark 2018-05-16 Adult. Rare or at least uncommon and practically unmistakable with the big size and in particular its coarse acrocephalus voice. Continues singing, but the question is if a mate will show up in time, or at all... Rare
	2569 (1 sounds) Cooper's Hawk (Accipiter cooperii) monotypic Hawks, Eagles and Kites (Accipitridae) La Bufa, San Sebastián del Oeste, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-13 Heard calling spontaneously a few times close to the road bend with the blue signs. Tried to playback it, but it never showed itself.
	2563 (2 sounds) Northern Pygmy-Owl (Glaucidium gnoma gnoma) Owls (Strigidae) Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-04 Surprised to hear this species away from the volcanoes, but habitat and altitude is perfectly fine for the species, so good it's here as well!
	2562 (1 sounds) Eared Poorwill (Nyctiphrynus mcleodii mcleodii) Nightjars and Allies (Caprimulgidae) Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-04 Two birds calling shortly at the same time, on opposite sides of the road. Great with an alternative to the volcanoes for this species.
	2561 (1 sounds) Stygian Owl (Asio stygius lambi) Owls (Strigidae) Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-04 Wasn't aware of this bird in the field, but only after hearing the recording of a calling Northern Pygmy-Owl. Could be something else, but it sounds exactly like a single hoot from a Stygian, so I take the chance and call it that. The habitat is very suited as well with tall pines and oaks.
	2560 (1 sounds) Pine Flycatcher (Empidonax affinis ?) Tyrant Flycatchers (Tyrannidae) Camino Calaque, Zapotlán el Grande, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-04 Saw several birds that made me doubt whether they were Pine or Hammond's. But this recording, to me, sounds like a Pine; the call not being as sharp toned as that of the Hammond. But admitting that I'm still not an expert on these differences, I could be wrong. If you think so, please let me know.
	2461 (8 photos) (3 sounds) Elegant Quail (Callipepla douglasii douglasii) New World Quail (Odontophoridae) Behind Mazatlán Airport, Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-06-03 Male. Unmistakable in the area. Defended it's territory vigorously by running toward us when playing the voice. Apparently common in the area.
	2455 (7 photos) (2 sounds) Aztec Thrush (Ridgwayia pinicola) monotypic Thrushes and Allies (Turdidae) Reserva de la Chara Pinta (Tufted Jay reserve), Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-06-01 Female. Likely a ung bird because of the mottled belly. Was calling heavily while we were there, as if it was protecting a nest site. Nick saw a male briefly close to this spot, but those were the only observations we made of the species.
	2215 (1 sounds) Buff-collared Nightjar (Antrostomus ridgwayi ridgwayi) Nightjars and Allies (Caprimulgidae) Barranca de Huentitán, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2016-03-25 3 birds calling within a 100-meter triangle, and the only ones heard during a stretch of 1 km. Only two can be heard in this recording. The one much closer than the other.
	2211 (1 sounds) Bullock's Oriole (Icterus bullockii ?) Troupials and Allies (Icteridae) Parque Metropolitano, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-24 Call from foraging bird. More present.
	2208 (1 sounds) Aztec Rail (Rallus tenuirostris) monotypic Rails, Gallinules and Allies (Rallidae) Presa La Vega, west of Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2016-02-11 Eeehh call repeated throughout the recording. The other individuals present only called with the more common clapper call. Endemic
	1915 (1 sounds) Yellow-rumped Warbler (Setophaga coronata auduboni) New World Warblers (Parulidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-22 Typical call. Reminds of the calls of some of the other warblers present here, such as: Wilson's, Orange-crowned and MacGillivray's. However it has a less sharp quality above it, and is rather characteristic once you catch the difference. The eastern birds, white-throated coronata have a sharper call than audubonis.
	1914 (1 sounds) White-tipped Dove (Leptotila verreauxi angelica) Pigeons and Doves (Columbidae) Barranca de Huentitán, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Typical almost suppressed call that you often hear. However the birds you don't see that often; mostly because it can be difficult to figure out where the sound comes from.
	1913 (1 sounds) Rufous-bellied Chachalaca (Ortalis wagleri) monotypic Chachalacas, Guans and Curassows (Cracidae) Barranca de Huentitán, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Typical chachalaca calls in the background.
	1912 (1 sounds) West Mexican Chachalaca (Ortalis poliocephala) monotypic Chachalacas, Guans and Curassows (Cracidae) Laguna la María, Comala, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Call.
	1911 (1 sounds) Orange-billed Nightingale-Thrush (Catharus aurantiirostris clarus) Thrushes and Allies (Turdidae) Barranca de Huentitán, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Singing male. Sinaloa Wren in the background.
	1910 (1 sounds) Varied Bunting (Passerina versicolor dickeyae) Cardinals and Allies (Cardinalidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-29 Characteristic call from excited juvenile. 3 young women were taking photos of themselves in front of the bird, so per definition I feel confident that it had to be a male!
	1909 (1 sounds) Thick-billed Kingbird (Tyrannus crassirostris pompalis) Tyrant Flycatchers (Tyrannidae) Lo de Marcos, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico 2015-10-12 Call. The eager and rather shrill chatter. Not sure how common this call is. Also Inca Dove.
	1908 (1 sounds) Squirrel Cuckoo (Piaya cayana mexicana) Cuckoos (Cuculidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-22 Call. Classic call from this species. Reminds of the call of Ladder-backed Woodpecker,and sometimes you get cheated, but normally there is a more slow quality about the call from the cuckoo.
	1907 (1 sounds) Spotted Sandpiper (Actitis macularius) monotypic Sandpipers and Allies (Scolopacidae) Presa Las Pintitas, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-21 Alarm call. Worried about my presence it stood still on a floating object constantly calling.
	1906 (1 sounds) Social Flycatcher (Myiozetetes similis hesperis) Tyrant Flycatchers (Tyrannidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-25 Call. Typical voice you hear from this species: ihr-ihr-ihr...
	1905 (1 sounds) Sinaloa Wren (Thryophilus sinaloa sinaloa) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Lo de Marcos, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico 2015-10-12 Song.
	1904 (1 sounds) Sinaloa Wren (Thryophilus sinaloa sinaloa) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Barranca de Huentitán, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Song. Typical phrase. In the field this species gives associations toward the European Thrush Nightingale.
	1903 (1 sounds) Sinaloa Wren (Thryophilus sinaloa sinaloa) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Laguna la María, Comala, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Call. Has a rather varied repertoire, and with various wrens in the area, it sometimes can be difficult to distinguish these by call. Think that both sounds on this recording belong to this species.
	1902 (1 sounds) Russet-crowned Motmot (Momotus mexicanus mexicanus) Motmots (Momotidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-25 Call. The typical subdued call you always hear from the species. In the background House Sparrow and Inca Dove.
	1901 (1 sounds) Rufous-capped Warbler (Basileuterus rufifrons dugesi) New World Warblers (Parulidae) Cerro el Colli - Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-01 Song. Bad recording and bird not seen.
	1900 (1 sounds) Red-crowned Ant-Tanager (Habia rubica rosea) Cardinals and Allies (Cardinalidae) Laguna la María, Comala, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Call from male, somewhat worried by our presence. Saw a young bird nearby which might have been the reason.
	1899 (1 sounds) Rufous-bellied Chachalaca (Ortalis wagleri) monotypic Chachalacas, Guans and Curassows (Cracidae) Sierra Álica, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico 2015-09-18 Call. Somewhat different from the coarse crackling calls you normally hear from chachalacas.
	1898 (1 sounds) Painted Redstart (Myioborus pictus pictus) New World Warblers (Parulidae) Bosque La Primavera, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-23 Song. Reminds of the song of Coal Tit from Europe.
	1897 (1 sounds) Orange-billed Nightingale-Thrush (Catharus aurantiirostris clarus) Thrushes and Allies (Turdidae) Barranca de Huentitán, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-29 Song. A rather anonymous series of short clear thrush-like notes, often repeated over longer periods.
	1896 (1 sounds) Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis ?) Cardinals and Allies (Cardinalidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-25 Song. A calm serie of up-and-down notes.
	1895 (1 sounds) Nashville Warbler (Oreothlypis ruficapilla ?) New World Warblers (Parulidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-07 Call and toward the end a song phrase. Not sure whether song here in the winter quarters is an act of territorialism or perhaps young birds practicing.
	1894 (2 sounds) Nashville Warbler (Oreothlypis ruficapilla ?) New World Warblers (Parulidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-07 Call. Sharp characteristic call. The species is less common than Yellow-rumped Warbler in the park, but still it is my impression that it doesn't use to call as frequently as YRW.
	1893 (1 sounds) MacGillivray's Warbler (Geothlypis tolmiei) monotypic New World Warblers (Parulidae) Lo de Marcos, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico 2015-10-12 Calling from low above the ground in brushy habitat, as they normally do.
	1892 (1 sounds) Louisiana Waterthrush (Parkesia motacilla) monotypic New World Warblers (Parulidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-29 Calling.
	1891 (1 sounds) Louisiana Waterthrush (Parkesia motacilla) monotypic New World Warblers (Parulidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-22 Calling bird. Only heard, but likely the same bird as 1892 from August. Northern Waterthrush has tendencies toward a sharper call.
	1890 (1 sounds) Lilac-crowned Parrot (Amazona finschi) monotypic New World and African Parrots (Psittacidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-25 Contact call while foraging in tall eucalyptus trees.
	1889 (1 sounds) House Wren (Troglodytes aedon aedon (Northern)) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Presa Las Pintitas, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-21 Alarm call caused by my presence. However, seemed rather unaffected at the same time, staying in the same spot, allowing for a few pictures, as seen.
	1888 (1 sounds) Happy Wren (Pheugopedius felix pallidus) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Barranca de Huentitán, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Typical song phrase. The chip-call in the foreground is a Varied Bunting and in the background the sound of a West Mexican Chachalaca. Much less common than Sinaloa Wren at this locality.
	1887 (1 sounds) Happy Wren (Pheugopedius felix pallidus) Wrens (Troglodytidae) Barranca de Huentitán, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Call. As the sound of sweeping across the teeth of a metal comb. Normally it is Spot-breasted Wren that is associated with this call, but Happy also has one sounding in that direction.
	1886 (1 sounds) Hammond's Flycatcher (Empidonax hammondii) monotypic Tyrant Flycatchers (Tyrannidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-07 Typical call, sharper than the whip call heard from many of the other empidonax species.
	1885 (1 sounds) Golden Vireo (Vireo hypochryseus hypochryseus) Vireos, Shrike-Babblers and Erpornis (Vireonidae) Laguna la María, Comala, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Song. Rather monotonous but characteristic voice.
	1884 (1 sounds) Fan-tailed Warbler (Basileuterus lachrymosus) monotypic New World Warblers (Parulidae) Laguna la María, Comala, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Calling. The sharp drawn out sound that reminds somewhat of a thrush calling, just stronger.
	1883 (1 sounds) Eurasian Tree Sparrow (Passer montanus montanus) Old World Sparrows (Passeridae) Vinkelhuse, Tårnby, Amager, Denmark 2015-06-27 Calling birds from the local balcony-population. Normally has a sharper call than House Sparrow. In the background Eurasian Blackbird.
	1882 (1 sounds) Eurasian Blackbird (Turdus merula merula) Thrushes and Allies (Turdidae) Vinkelhuse, Tårnby, Amager, Denmark 2015-06-27 Song during the day as you hear it constantly from this charismatic thrush - the essence of a Danish summer. In the foreground Eurasian Tree Sparrow.
	1881 (1 sounds) Cordilleran Flycatcher (Empidonax occidentalis ?) Tyrant Flycatchers (Tyrannidae) Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-22 Characteristic call shared by both Pacific-slope and Cordilleran Flycatchers. The two are difficult to distinguish in the field, why the geography often dictates the id..!
	1880 (1 sounds) Cassin's Vireo (Vireo cassinii cassinii) Vireos, Shrike-Babblers and Erpornis (Vireonidae) Parque Metropolitano, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-03 Territorial song.
