496. Short-browed Owl  (BRqe)  ______
     Pulsatrix pulsatrix
     
     The Short-browed Owl, ranging in Brazil from Bahia south into northeast Argentina and Uruguay, has been considered a subspecies of the Spectacled Owl.
     Pulsatrix pulsatrix is not well known, but it is believed to be rare and threatened due to human persecution and habitat destruction.
     
     Geographically, the range of the Short-browed Owl overlaps with that of the Tawny-browed Owl (below), but the Tawny-browed Owl is notably smaller with long pale tawny eyebrows and dark chestnut eyes.

     The Mottled Owl inhabits primary & secondary forests, mostly humid lowland forests. But it also occurs dry and thorny forests, and from sea level usually to 800 meters, but sometimes 2500 meters above sea level.   
     
     Outside Brazil, the Mottled Owl has been found during FONT tours in Ecuador.
     
     What has been part of the Mottled Owl, and now called the Mexican Wood Owl, has been found during FONT tours in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico.
     The Mottled Owl, Strix virgata is now a South American species east of the Andes. The Mexican Wood Owl, Strix squamulata, ranges from Mexico south to northwestern South America, south to southwestern Ecuador.

     The Black-capped Screech Owl was historically lumped with these other Screech Owls: Guatemalan, Rio Napo, Montane Forest, and Long-tufted. When so, it was called the Variable Screech-Owl. 
     There are 3 color morphs: red, gray, and dark.

     Glaucidium brasilianum ucayalae  (subspecies in northern Brazil & in nearby countries)  (af)
     
     It is possible that Glaucidium brasilianum ucayalae is a  distinct species. It is very white below like the nominate but has fewer white head streaks. 
     More study is needed of the Glaucidium brasilianum complex.  
     
     Outside Brazil, the Ferruginous Pygmy Owl has been found during FONT tours in Argentina, Ecuador, Venezuela.

     Vocal & DNA evidence and differences in ecology have justified the treatment of the Chaco Pygmy Owl as a species separate from the Ferruginous Pygmy Owl.  
     
     Three morphs of the Chaco Pygmy Owl are known: gray, brown, and red. The brown morph, in the photo below, is an earth-brown coloration.  .

509. Amazonian Pygmy Owl  (*) ______ AF:oct  MT:aug,oct
     Glaucidium hardyi  (monotypic)
     
     The Amazonian Pygmy Owl occurs only in the extensive Amazon basin in Brazil and adjacent counties. 
     
     Voice and DNA data has shown that there is a close relationship between the Amazonian Pygmy Owl and the Yungas Pygmy Owl, of the southern east slope of the Andes, and the more-northerly Andean Pygmy Owl, rather than with the Glaucidium minutissimum complex, that is the two species below, the Sick's and Pernambuco Pygmy Owls, formerly the "Least Pygmy Owl".  
     
     The Amazonian Pygmy Owl gives a melodious call, consisting of from 10 to 30 fluted notes in rapid succession, with some 10 to 13 notes per second. Each phrase lasts from 2.5 to 3 seconds, and is repeated at variable intervals. 
     The sound is a relatively loud and ringing trill that is unlike the soft trills given by Sick's and Pernambuco Pygmy Owls.
     The Amazonian Pygmy Owl often calls during the day.          
     
     
510. Sick's Pygmy Owl  (BRqe)  ______    
     Glaucidium sicki 
     
     The Sick's Pygmy Owl was part of what was the "Least Pygmy Owl", that was Glaucidium minutissimum. It has now been separated and renamed, but there is still uncertainty about this species and the following, the Pernambuco Pygmy Owl. Research may lead to further nomenclature and taxonomic change. Even though locally not rare, Glaucidium sicki is very little studied.
     
     The Sick's Pygmy Owl occurs from eastern Brazil to eastern Paraguay, and possibly northeastern Argentina. It occupies primary evergreen rainforest and forest edges from sea level to 1100 meters.
     
     The Ferruginous Pygmy Owl, Glaucidium brasilianum, overlaps with both the Sick's Pygmy Owl and the Pernambuco Pygmy Owl, but the Ferruginous Pygmy Owl is larger and with streaks on the crown rather than spots.
     
     The Sick's Pygmy Owl gives a hollow and slightly drawn-out call. the first note lasts 0.25 seconds, the second o.2 seconds, with a 0.35 second pause between the notes. It calls just before dawn, and less often after dusk.         
     
     
511. Pernambuco Pygmy Owl  (t2) (BRe) ______
     Glaucidium minutissimum 
     
     The Pernambuco Pygmy Owl occurs only in state of Pernambuco in northeastern Brazil. The entire known population lives in a protected forest reserve.

     The little-known Buff-fronted Owl inhabits mountain forests and cloud forests, dry forests, and stinted alpine forests. It does occur at some lower altitudes, but two subspecies in western South America are in high in the Andes between 1700 meters & 3900 meters above sea level.
     The secretive Buff-fronted Owl is the only Aegolius owl in South America.  
     
     The Buff-fronted Owl utters very rapid whistled trills, with a quivering character, with 15 notes per second and lasting 7 to 10 seconds.

     At a feeder, during the FONT August 2007 tour in Southeast Brazil, a toucan.
     As you can see, the traditional name for this bird, the Red-breasted Toucan, 
     is not the best, as the red is mostly on the belly, and the breast has other colors. 
     The new name is Green-billed Toucan.
