[[circled]] 103 [[/circled]] first place, I certainly have seen [[underlined]] brunneinucha [[/underlined]] several times apart from mixed flocks here. In the second place, if it is really allogregarious here, it is the second case of the kind that I have observed. Remember Slate-throated Whitestart!!! Possibly there is a general rule that individuals are more allogregarious here than individuals of the same species in Chiriqui - altho the latter are more allogregarious than other individuals of the same species in other parts of the Andes. ([[underlined]] Possibly [[/underlined]] the BCBT is an exception to the general rule. But its case is complicated by changes in [[underlined]]auto[[/underlined]]gregariousness.) Going to work along the highway this afternoon. Cloudy. Fairly warm. Occasional sprinkle of rain. Fog (coming in from usual place) has reached very far this afternoon (almost to store). [[left margin in red]] XI 2 [[/left margin]] 2:45 pm. See single [[red checkmark]] White-throated Hummingbird. Feeding 3 ft up in "hedge" along stream. Definitely alone. NOTE: There is almost [[underlined]] no [[/underlined]] wind down here this afternoon. 3:00 pm. Near where "Glauc" seen last year. Catch brief glimpse of what may be small, diffuse, flock in fog in tree-tops. All birds quite unidentifiable. 3:15. See a couple of Sooty Thrushes alone in scrub by road. [[left margin in purple]] VI HO [[/left margin]] [[left margin in green]] 52 5 [[/left margin]] 3:20. A few yards further along road. 8190 ft Come across definite mixed flock in heavy fog. Includes at least [[green checkmark]] 1 Whitestripe, [[green checkmark]] 1 [[underlined]] Cnemoscopus, [[/underlined]] [[3 green checkmarks]] 3 or 4 [[purple]] 3 [[/purple]] large yellow-breasted tanagers (presumably [[underlined]] Buthraupis [[/underlined]] and/or [[underlined]] Compsocoma [[/underlined]] spp.) Whitestripe in scrub 6 - 12 ft up. Other birds in small second growth trees 15 - 30 ft up. Flock apparently fairly coherent; but not going anywhere. All or most [[left margin in green]] 58 [[/left margin]] birds utter a lot of "CN"s; but nothing else. [[2 green checkmarks]] Fog really [[underlined]] too [[/underlined]] thick. Going down road 3:40 pm.
