[[circle]] 93 [[/circle]] As far as I could tell, the PL's and [[underlined]] rufinuchas [[/underlined]] definitely were [[underlined]] not [[/underlined]] associating particularly closely with one another - at least most of the time. After some minutes, the Atlapetes spp., quieted down. Finally apparently shut up entirely, except for "PN"s and/or "CN"s. At which point, the Yellowfaces uttered a few more Song phrases! Then also shut up. Then I heard one Brun R-Zaza. But neither the Brun(s) nor the Cy Sang at any time. [[margin, in red]] Brun Cy [[/margin]] The Plush-capped Finch showed a definite tendency to stick to bamboo (Viz the birds of the same species seen elsewhere in Nothern Andes.) [[margin, in purple]] XI [[/margin]] [[margin, in green]] 67 71 [[/margin]] 7:20 am. Same area. Most of the flock seems to have disappeared. But some of it seems to have remained behind. [[underlined]] Two [[2 green checkmarks]] [[/underlined]] Yellowbellies and [[underlined]] three [[three green checkmarks]] B. nigrocristatus, [[/underlined]] and at least one Whitestripe! This is some sort of dispute among the [[underlined]] B. nigrocristatus [[/underlined]]. Aerial chase. Yellow belly f [[right arrow]] [[underlined]] nigrocristatus [[/underlined]]. All birds visible now 1 - 3 ft up. In both bamboo and other scrub. Perhaps these birds are bringing up the "rear guard"??? If so, perhaps one or both of the Atlapetes spp. are (or were) in lead??? [[margin, in red]] Cy 50 [[/margin]] Then these birds disappear. Then see single [[red check mark]] Cy not far away. I.E Cys here [[underlined]] may not [[/underlined]] follow mixed flocks over long distances like the Cys at Munchique. SEE ALSO TODAY'S NOTES ON MIXED DIGLOSSINI [[margin, in purple]] XII HO [[/margin]] [[margin, in green]] 76 [[/margin]] 7:45. Only a [[underlined]] few [[/underlined]] feet down road. Now I see that all or most of the large mixed flock is still here or has come back. Some birds are in trees edge scrub. [[margin, in red]] Cy [[/margin]] I.E. yellow-bellies, [[2 green checkmarks and purple 1]] , Cy [[green checkmark and purple 2]] and [[underlined]] White-stripes [[2 green checkmarks and purple 3]] [[/underlined]]. All 15 - 25 ft up. Not close together, 10 - 15 yds apart. Also in same [[margin in red]] Cy [[/margin]]
