[[l. margin note in dark blue]] [[X]] discount the whole burst of LCN+O+O+G Apparently directed toward lizard. !!!

One thing about redirection upon mate & Cht performance. Not only do the mates turn to face another, they usually turn to face, even enter the nest cavity     9:55

Moth flight with St. by attacker after attack [[underline]]Again [[/underline]]

Loudest cht is incredibly loud & metallic. Probably higher-pitched than other variants. Obviously high intensity

Have seen many attacks preceded by no display. This may explain some peculiar features of my figures

Again burst of LCN's from nearby birds when I can hear lizard running over my blind. [[underline]] Again. [[/underline]] 10:35

Again some pairing behavior. Much as before, but seen much nearer and in much greater detail.
[[male]] (quite large, almost sure of his sex), stands with fish (as usual half-down throat, tail protruding longitudinally) Just stands, looking half-stupefied. Another bird approaches him. He attacks it Flies off on little circular flight, apparently quite unritualized Then back. This alternation of little circular flight and periods on ground goes on for a long time.

Transcription Notes:
perhaps the checkmarks are marks made while the author was counting the number of gull vocalizations? LCN probably stands for "long call note". Agg.V. is probably "aggressive vocalization." As with previous pages, how to transcribe shaded bars next to paragraphs? They may be a code for the author about content type.
