[[left margin in red]] Albi Nocti? [[/left margin]]

3 - 4 ft up in nearby bamboo scrub. There also are 2 [[2 checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 219 [[/insert]] [[insert,in blue]] 4 [[/insert]] [[male  symbol]] Albis 6 - 12 ft up in trees.  Then I see a fight between 2 black Diglossa I [[underlined]] thought [[/underlined]] that this was between Albi and Nocti.  In any [[2 checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 84 [[/insert]] case, Albi flies away.

Nothing follows.  And Nocti - if there was one present - disappears without my seeing it again.  The other [[male symbol]] Albi stays around for some minutes more.  Then flies off also

[[left margin in red]] Gen [[/left margin]]

During the Diglossa dispute, the group also was "visited" by one or two small hummingbirds.

Walking further downhill, I find that bull-dozer is working in "the flock" area.  So I continue down.

COMMENT: It occurs to me that some of the areas along this road where I never, or almost never, see birds or flocks [[underlined]] look [[/underlined]] just as "good" as some areas where birds are common.  Does this suggest that region is (still) "underpopulated" - as a result of earlier cutting and burning ???

9:10 am. Find a couple of [[2 checkmarks]] [[insert,in pencil]] 86 [[/insert]] Bright Ruddy Flycatchers chasing insects in usual place.  Noisy.  But definitely alone.

Stopping observations 9:30am.
