[[circled]] 36 [[/circled]]
[[margin, in red]] Scan? [[/margin]]
Also see a number of BT's fly by alone.
Then see what looks and sounds like Scan display flight. 
4:23.  See pair PST's in tree, 18 ft. up.  They move on.  Then a vereo flies into same tree.  Apparently [[underline]] not [[/underline]] following  PST's.
Lots of different flycatchers around here. Also 1 Parula Warbler (presumably Tropical). The Parula is uttering R's.
4:36.  See [[female symbol]] or juv. [[underline]] Raphocelus flaminigerus [[/underline]] (both orange and yellow underneath)  Alone.  Edge scrub & pasture.  3 ft up.
5:20.  See single tanager, probably a [[underline]] Pipraeidea [[/underline]] subspecies I have never seen before (no. LXXXXII), 3 ft up, isolated patch scrub, edge of river.
Leaving 5:25 pm
COMMENT:  It probably is significant that the presumed [[underline]] Pipraeidea [[/underline]] was alone.  Blue & buffy, or blue & chestnut coloration is much less  common or widespread here than in the Southern Andes. The "functional" equivalent of blue & buffy here, and probably throughout much of the Northern Andes is blue & [[underline]] yellow [[/underline]] (viz the Yellowbelly, [[underline]] Dubusia [[/underline]], the 2 [[underline]] Butteraupis [[/underline]] species, [[underline]] Compsocoma, [[/underline]] and [[underline]] cyanocephala  [[/underline]]- in some areas)
     NOTE: The [[underline]] cyanocephala [[/underline]] here may illustrate the same general principle cited above.  They may be less gregarious here than in many other parts of the Northern Andes.  Thus explaining why they survive in the Quito region.
