Back to first site. [[underlined]]rufinucha [[/underlined]] and Yellowface still uttering occasional song phrases. Non-overlapping. 6:50 

Then see single [[underlined]] Yellow-throated [[/underlined]] Atlapetes [[underlined]] (gutturalis) [[/underlined]] apparently alone. Silent. 3 ft up dense second growth scrub.

7:03 Further down road. See single Sooty Thrush alone. 
Then hear more [[underlined]] rufinucha [[/underlined]] Whistle songs in another area. Certainly not same individual heard and seen singing earlier.

[[left margin in red]] Cy 22 [[/left margin]]

7.07. Catch brief glimpse [[underlined]] 3 [[/underlined]] [[3 red checkmarks over number]] Cys moving about, close together, 10 ft up, sparse scrubby trees edge pasture.  All apparently adult, but no obvious overt hostility!

Everything quiet 7:30am

7:35 See mixed flock in scrub and second growth trees along road. [[in left margin in colors]] VI HO Cy 41 [[/in left margin]]  When first seen, flock includes 2 [[2 green checkmarks over number]] [[underlined]] cyanocephala [[/underlined]], at least 2 [[2 green checkmarks over number]] Cys, others.  All close together. 12 ft up in tree top. Also 1 brown squirrel. (Apparently usual species) Fairly noisy.  Lots of "CNs" and "PN"s. Then group flies off.  Can't see who leads. [[underlined]] Cys f [[right arrow]] group repeatedly. [[/underlined]]. Squirrel left behind.

After a minute or so, Cys [[2 red checkmarks over name]] [[underlined]] stop [[/underlined]] following.  Turn around and go back the way they came. 

[[in left margin in colors]] Cy 24 VII HO Cy 43 25[[/in left margin]]

Then 1 Cy [[green checkmark over name]] j [[right arrow]] 1 BCBT [[green check mark]] in scrub 3 ft up!

Cys certainly active nuclear here!

[[in left margin in red]] 25 [[/in left margin]]

Then I see a single [[ underlined]] Yellowbelly [[/underlined]] feeding in scrub 60-75 ft away! Silent. Apparently alone.  Eating same species purple berries as Cy earlier this morning.

8:10 am. Go further along road to another area. 7850 ft. Rather poor second growth scrub.
