ently not associated with individuals other species.

The presumably migrant Catharus around here is dull above, with a wash of buffy on throat, and apparently, a buffy eye ring.

6:10. See group of 3 or 4 BYB's (presumably same as before) in the tree-tops. Again above.

6:50. Have seen same group BYB's several times more. There are probably at least 5 birds in group as a whole. Always above!

7:05. Inside forest. See mixed flock in trees. Includes several [[underlined]] Tangara arthus [[/underlined]], at least one (♂) [[underlined]] Pipreola riefferi [[/underlined]], several others (either [[underlined]] Cnemoscopus rubrirostris [[/underlined]] and/or some gray-headed, possibly striped headed, yellow-bellied [[underlined]] Basileuterus [[/underlined]]) [[underlined]] arthus [[/underlined]] may have been leader.  This flock was in exactly same area where BYB's had been earlier, but the BYB's were neither visible nor audible at the same time.

The [[underlined]] T. arthus [[/underlined]] uttered lots of single "feeee" Notes. Occasional "fee-seeee"s. With [[underlined]] very [[/underlined]] little or no trace of the hoarse quality of the notes of Silver-throats.  Also rather loud, hard, single "Track" Notes.

There are several large trees around here, covered with tubular pink flowers.  But they have not been visited by any diglossines (and probably not by any humming birds). I think diglossines may be absent here.

The mixed flock described above moved on quite rapidly. I follow in same direction. Catch up with the [[underlined]] arthus [[/underlined]]. Apparently alone, except for a single [[underlined]] Catharus [[/underlined]] about 20 ft away. There is a juvenile bird with the group. All the [[underlined]] arthus [[/underlined]] are feeding on the same melastome "berries" as the BYB's earlier.

7:30 am. See mixed flock in second growth along edge of road.
