Going to work same place today as yesterday

6:00 - 6:10. Area where first flock seen yesterday. There certainly are [[underlined]] some [[/underlined]] birds around now; but not at all close together, and certainly [[underlined]] not [[/underlined]] a flock.

See single Yellowbelly [[red check mark on name]] alone. 25 ft up in the tree edge scrub.

See various Yellowfaces [[three red check marks on name]] Singing around here (at least 3 individuals) obviously are alone. In trees.

6:25 am. Area second flock.  Occasional Yellow-face songs and Atlapetes Whistle Songs. [[underlined]] No overlap. [[/underlined]] Then silence.  Then some [[underlined]] Basileuterus [[/underlined]] R-[[Houreech?]] patterns.  Then silence again.

6:30.  See pair [[2 red checkmarks on word]] Yellowbellies moving thru scrub. 6 - 12 ft up. Quiet. [[underlined]] Probably [[/underlined]] alone.

Moderately noisy.
