The Australian magpie (Cracticus tibicen) is a medium-sized black and white passerine bird native to Australia and southern New Guinea. Described as one of Australia's most accomplished songbirds, the Australian magpie has an array of complex vocalisations.

The grey-headed bushshrike (Malaconotus blanchoti) is a species of bird in the Malaconotidae family. It is widespread throughout Sub-Saharan Africa, although relatively absent in Central and Southern Africa. Its natural habitats are dry savannah and moist savannah.

The black phoebe (Sayornis nigricans) is a passerine bird in the tyrant-flycatcher family. It breeds from southwest Oregon and California south through Central and South America.
