Welcome aboard, hussy9. As you are relatively new here, I'll clue you in on how this particular thread/game works: Having started with the letter" a", posters here try to come up with the name of a type of bird, going in alphabetical order. So far as I can ascertain, scientific names are just as acceptable as common names (as my last posting here demonstrates; I've not had/heard any complaints so far). Since my last posting here began with the letter " t", the next one will begin with the letter " u"; therefore...(drum roll, please)...:
Upucerthia validirostris (scientific name for the buff-breasted earthcreeper bird).

And that would be followed by
Vulture, of which Cape, Bearded, Palmnut, Whitebacked and Lappetfaced are a few common names that spring to mind.
