Also hear Firebellies, Atlapetes Twitter, and Cy-type Songs. 5:50 a.m.

See single Firebelly[[Checkmark over previous word]] 
alone 5:55 a.m.. Also several single thrushes. Correction: This single Firebelly is perched in tree only 20 feet
[[margin, purple]] II [[/margin]] away from Bush in which Atlapetes[[Checkmark over previous word]]
is giving Whistle Song. Atlapetes
[[Margin, green]] 12 [[/margin]] is PL. Perched 6 ft up bare bush. Songs "Feeoo foo" and "Feeoo feeoo foo".Also about 20 feet from PL I hear sounds Atlapetes Twitter. Probably PR's. [[2 checkmarks over previous word]] So far, 6:00 a.m., I have seen no overt reactions between the birds of different species, but the group certainly is a "proto-flock", at the very least.

Fog in 6:01. Difficult to see.

From the sounds I hear, PR's may have passed by singing PL, without being joined by latter. Gone on about 20 ft. Firebellies now nearer PR is to PL. Possibly Firebellies & PR's already following one another? 6:02.

[[Margin, red]] Laf [[/margin]] Laf starts to sing while PL continues Whistle Song. Broad overlap. But then PL shuts up. Then both sing again, irrregularly. Lots of overlap. But PL [[underline]] may [[/underline]] showed definite tendency to shut up
[[margin,red]] Laf [[/margin]]when Laf is in full spate. Then all silent 6:05

[[margin,red]] 14 [[/margin]] Then see Cy [[red checkmark on previous word]]
(definite) Singing exposed 30 feet away. Songs
[[margin,red]] Cy [[/margin]] pretty much formless twitter. Then some phrases with Intro "Ta see tasee". No other bird (s) singing same tune.

Lots of humming birds chasing one another.

Cy shuts up 6:08. Flies down into Scrub.

[[margin,red]] Cy [[/margin]] As far as my evidence goes here, Cys and Lafs (still) do
[[margin,red]] Laf [[/margin]] not overlap their songs.

[[margin,red]] Cy [[/margin]] Cy back singing 6:09:30 all phrases with Intro Notes
