Here it is!There are probably too many, but I'd add Araripe Manakin by Andrew Whitehouse, as well (link).
Really?I agree Rondonia Bushbird is a very, very good bird! Certainly much more difficult to access than Rondonia Bushbird.
....
Hahah, yes definitely what I intended to write!Really?
😂
Thought it was Congo Bay Owl that was the difficult bay owl?For me the birds that most raised an eyebrow in terms of "wow, I didn't think anyone sees that!" have been Sri Lanka Bay Owl and Carpentaria Grasswren. ...
Very sad, but kind of cool that you will soon have seen an extinct speciesThe rarest bird I've seen (and which I posted) is Stresemann's Bristlefront. Sadly, there's possibly only one individual left.
Wow, Purple-backed Sunbeam is bit mythical (in terms of effort to get to the site) as I understand it!I agree Rondonia Bushbird is a very, very good bird! Certainly much more difficult to access than Rondonia Bushbird.
I looked at the thread a few times but by the time I tried to look at the spreadsheet then contribute something, the post had moved on, so I didn't bother posting.
Birds I could potentially contribute that I'm guessing are not likely to have been contributed by others: Tsingy Wood-Rail, Townsend's Shearwater, Apurimac Thistletail, Vilcabamba Thistletail...
Birds that maybe aren't on the list yet: Pirre Hummingbird, Pirre Warbler, Beautiful Treerunner, Short-tailed Finch, Raimondi's Yellow-Finch, Peruvian Martin, Black-capped Siskin, Berlepsch's Tinamou, Coiba Spinetail, Azuero/Brown-backed Dove, Azuero Parakeet, Cordillera Azul Antbird, Taczanowski's Tinamou, Purple-backed Sunbeam, Tuxtla Quail-Dove, Cream-eyed Bulbul, Bornean Frogmouth, Dulit Frogmouth, Black Oriole, Gough Moorhen, Gough Island Finch, Tristan Thrush, Bonin White-eye, Lombok Drongo, Javan Flameback, Javan Frogmouth... probably more...
If the thread ever slows down and there's anything left to contribute I'll join in then
