Arrive same place as yesterday 5:28 am. Sky largely overcast. Still quite dark. Apparently not much wind. But it is cold!
First thrush sounds heard 5:38 Otherwise things are very quiet. I wonder how many species here go torpid at night, especially cold nights? 
Going up hill. More bird sounds 5:45 am But none of "my" species yet. 
Everything [[underline]] dead [[/underline]] quiet again 5:52 Then hear first Firebelly in distance at 5:%3. Then a variety of sounds by different species. Then more Firebelly First Whitestart 5:58. No diglossini audible yet. A single Sooty Thrush flies by. Silent and Alone. 
6:01 Several Whitestarts Singing. Also some wren. Complete overlap Songs of the two species.

6:10 See single [[underline]] B nigrocristatus [[/underline]] (Lepinte) in low scrub right at edge tall forest. 
1 1/2 - 3 ft up. Noisy. Uttering R's and loud "CN" or SHN's. But definitely alone. (This site is very close to where I saw the mixed flock including rufous spinetails and olive, yellow, blue & black tanagers the other day. Perhaps the [[underline]] nigrocristatus [[/underline]] were avoiding the flock that day???)
Sky clearing rapidly 6:18. Sun will soon reach this area.
6:21 Right at edge taller forest. See single Firebelly 30 - 40 ft up in tree. Definitely alone. Utters "Seeet" Notes. Flies away.
