[[start of page]] llies, at least, are spending all or most there time eating fruits. Especially small greenish berry-like fruits. [[margin, in red]] Laf [[margin]] Eventually, Whitestart stops chasing Laf. Laf stops singing Some seconds later, Whitestart sings some more. Then shuts up. Group now moving thru extremely varied scrub-edge road. Small trees, large bushes, and some bamboo. Rather surprisingly, the Laf continues to accompany the group for some appreciable distance. Laf quite silent now. Then I see that one Whitestart is chassing and attacking the other. Chases with "CN"s and/or "SHN"s but no song. I presume that the aggressive bird is the same one who chased Laf earlier. It is interesting that [[underline]] both [[/underline]] cases of inter-specific hostility seen in mixed flocks in this region have been clearly associated with intra-specific hostility (viz the Sittis see yesterday or the day before). Now group flies across road. [[underline]] Basileuterus [[/underline]] and/or [[underline]] Hemispingus [[/underline]] types [[underline]] definitely [[/underline]] in lead. [[underline]] Everything [[/underline]] else can be said to be following, and following [[underline]] repeatedly [[/underline]]. I can't see much of the order of precedence crossing the road. But certainly the PL, the Whitestarts and the Yellow-bellies do [[underline]] not [[/underline]] come immediately after the [[underline]] Basileuterus [[/underline]] and/or [[underline]] Hemispingus [[/underline]] types. [[margin]] [[in red]] CY Laf [[/red]] [[in green]] 44 [[/green]] [[/margin]] Then Cy joins ------> group. Sings repeatedly, perched 10 ft up in small tree. Laf and Whitestart silent at the time. (There certainly have been absolutely no overaps Whitstart and/or Diglossini Songs at any time in this flock.) As far as I can tell, there are no particularly close associations between any two species within this flock. Certainly the Diglossini are not associating with one another.
