[[circled]] 4 [[/circled]] August 13, 1967 Santa Marta Region SEE TODAY'S NOTES ON MIXED DIGLOSSINI 6:25 am. Border of USTF with quite extensive patch of low dense scrub in front of it. Come across mixed flock. Partly, but certainly not wholly, flock seen yesterday. Includes at least 2 [[two checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 19 [[/insert]] [[insert,in blue]] 1 [[/insert]] Whitestarts CXXVII, 2 [[two checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 21 [[/insert]] [[insert,in blue]] 2 [[/insert]] Whitebeards, 2 [[two checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 23 [[/insert]] [[insert,in blue]] 3 [[/insert]] Cheek Atlapetes - all low in scrub, 4 - 12 ft up - 2 [[two checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 25 [[/insert]] [[insert,in blue]] 4 [[/insert]] [[underlined]] Th. cyanocephala, [[/underlined]] 2 [[two checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 27 [[/insert]] [[insert,in blue]] 5 [[/insert]] of the local species of [[underlined]] Anisognathus [[/underlined]] ("Local Firebelly") - all high in trees, 20 - 25 ft up ---- and 2 [[two checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 29 [[/insert]] [[insert,in blue]] 6 [[/insert]] Synallaxis types (same species seen yesterday) ranging widely, 6 - 20 ft up.
