Hi all
I am currently in Brazil but have little knowledge of the local birds. I have identified most of what I've seen using field guides but am unsure on a few (most of which I only have a description for rather than pictures I'm afraid). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
1. Some kind of Swallow (White-rumped or Blue & White?) or Martin (Grey-breasted?) - see picture.
2. Two vultures which were all black but had white rumps - seen in flight only.
3. A vulture/hawk which had a red beak, whitish face and black body - seen on the ground on the road side.
4. A bird with a long tail like an Ani but that had a whitish/pale breast - seen sat on overhead telegraph wires.
5. A vulture which was all black but with a whitish/pale face - seen sat on a telegraph pole.
