The Brown-banded Antpitta (Grallaria milleri) is endemic to Colombia, known only from the Western slope of the Central Andes in Caldas and Quindío.
A stellar bird in Río Blanco, it comes very well into earthworm feeding stations.
The Red-ruffed Fruitcrow (Pyroderus scutatus) is a mythical target species for birders traveling to South America. Much sought but hardly ever seen, a healthy population of this bird is found at the Otún-Quimbaya Wildlife Sanctuary above Pereira.
